The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1
This article was previously published under Q118296

SYMPTOMS

The Announce and Anndelta entries in the Registry in Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1 are ignored. These entries are located in the Registry under: 

   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ 
      SYSTEM\ 
         CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters.


The Resource Kit for Windows NT states these keys are used to tune the Lanman Server portion of Windows NT. However, changing these entries has no effect on the performance of Windows NT.

WARNING: Using the Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system- wide problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of the Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own risk.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
