Unsuccessful Appletalk Winsock Connection Using WSARECV() (164565)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 4.0
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q164565 SYMPTOMS
When you use a program that calls the WSARECV() function to communicate
with a Windows NT version 4.0 server over a Winsock connection with the
AppleTalk protocol, the program does not establish a successful
connection to the server. However, when you use the same program to
connect to a Windows NT version 3.51 server, the program works correctly.
CAUSE
Programs using a Winsock connection to a Windows NT 4.0 server may require
Winsock 2.0 support. Prior to Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3, there are no
provisions for Winsock 2.0 functionality in Windows NT Server 4.0.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT
4.0. For more information, please see the following article in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base:
