Piping LOAD Commands to NUL Causes Windows Sharing Violations (103705)
This article was previously published under Q103705
SUMMARY
Users sometimes pipe network commands to NUL to shield their
workstations from network messages. But If SHARE.EXE is loaded and any
LAN Manager LOAD command has been piped to NUL before you enter
Windows enhanced mode (LOAD NETBEUI > NUL) then all subsequent piping
to NUL from within Windows reports a sharing violation.
To avoid this, refrain from piping protocol LOAD commands to NUL. It
should not pose a problem: LOAD commands return only two lines of
information.
