The network interface on a multi-function, composite USB device does not work in Windows Server 2003 (892471)

CAUSE

This problem may occur if the following conditions are true:

The device uses the Microsoft Windows XP inbox driver for the Remote Network Device Interface Specification (RNDIS).
The device uses the Interface Association Descriptor (IAD) to describe which interfaces belong to the network adaptor.

The problem occurs because the Usbccgp.sys driver does not configure all interfaces that are defined in the IAD when the driver handles a URB_FUNCTION_SELECT_CONFIGURATION request. The driver configures only the first interface and does not return valid pipe handles for the remaining interfaces.
