Open and Read Access Denied to WFWSYS.CFG (111561)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft LAN Manager 2.2
This article was previously published under Q111561 SYMPTOMS
Open and read access to the file WFWSYS.CFG on a LAN Manager server is
denied.
CAUSE
In Windows for Workgroups 3.11 you can administer certain configured
security features located in the file WFWSYS.CFG. The file can exist
locally or on a remote computer. When WFWG is started, a null session is
established to the server/workgroup client where WFWSYS.CFG is located and
the security settings are initialized.
If WFWSYS.CFG is located on a LAN Manager server, open and read access is
denied due to the null session imposed by OS2/LAN Manager.
WORKAROUND
Install WFWSYS.CFG on the local machine.
