TITLE   :Error 1219 After WNetCancelConnection2
PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT
PROD/VER:winnt:4.0
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0, Terminal Server Edition 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

A developer may use the WNetAddConnection2 function to connect to a shared
resource with a user context that is different from the context of the logged-on
user. WNetCancelConnection2 is the recommended function for disconnecting
resources that were connected by using WNetAddConnection2. WNetCancelConnection2
closes all files and disconnects the session from the remote server.

A program may connect to a shared resource sequentially by using two or more
different user accounts. Because of a problem in the WNetCancelConnection2
function on Windows Terminal Server, the following error message may be received
when you are attempting to connect to the resource in the context of the second
user:

   System error 1219 has occurred. The credentials supplied conflict with an
   existing set of credentials.

CAUSE
=====

Even though WNetCancelConnection2 returns success, a file handle is left open
that has a security entry of the first user. The next time any resource on the
server is accessed from that terminal session, the system finds the old handle
with a different user context, which is not valid, and generates the credential
conflict error message.

RESOLUTION
==========

A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to
correct the problem described in this article and should be applied only to
systems experiencing this specific problem. This fix may receive additional
testing at a later time, to further ensure product quality. Therefore, if you
are not severely affected by this problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait
for the next Windows NT 4.0, Terminal Server Edition, service pack that contains
