You receive a "No domain server was available to validate your logon" error message when you use Dial-Up Networking in Windows 95 to dial into a remote network (154434)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 95
- Microsoft Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2.1
- Microsoft Windows 95 OEM Service Release 1
- Microsoft Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2
This article was previously published under Q154434 SYMPTOMS When you use Dial-Up Networking in Windows 95 to dial into
a remote network, you may receive the following error message when the remote
Microsoft Windows NT server attempts to validate you: No
domain server was available to validate your logon. After you
receive this error message, the dial-up client may still be attached to the
network (but without authentication) and may have access to some resources on
the domain. In some cases, connectivity is not established at all.
CAUSE This error message occurs when the TCP/IP protocol
(specifically, Vnbt.386) is not completely bound to the redirector (Vredir)
before the logon request occurs. The DOMAINNAME1ch
name query request is never sent to the WINS server; therefore, the Windows 95
client never finds a domain controller that can validate its logon.
The DOMAINNAME1ch request is normally sent by a
TCP/IP client to locate domain controllers on the network for the purpose of
logging on to the domain. RESOLUTION This issue is resolved by the following updated file for
Windows 95 and OEM Service Release 1 (OSR1):
RASAPI32.DLL version 4.0.953 (7/9/96) and later
This file is included in the self-extracting RASUPD.EXE file.
This issue is resolved by the following updated file for Windows 95
OEM Service Release 2 (OSR2) and 2.1:
RASAPI32.DLL version 4.0.1112 (3/3/97) and later
This file is included in the self-extracting RAS2UPD.EXE file.
