This article was previously published under Q165443 SYMPTOMS
When a Novell NetWare Client computer logs on to a NetWare 4.x server, the
login script could fail to map certain drive mappings that are preceded by
IF MEMBER OF. This condition will mainly happen when the user is a member
of enough NDS groups such that the group list is bigger than 2048 bytes.
CAUSE
A buffer was not initialized to a size large enough to contain the entire
group list.
RESOLUTION
Apply the hotfix mentioned below.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 4.0.
This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 U.S. Service
Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word
