Not All Objects Are Displayed When Browsing NDS Trees (164928)
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 Q164928 SYMPTOMS
When you use the Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) or Gateway Services for
NetWare (GSNW) to browse a NetWare Directory Services (NDS) tree, some NDS
objects may be missing from the list of available objects.
CAUSE
The Microsoft client software does not correctly handle cases where the NDS
tree is very large. If the data requested by the client is not entirely
contained by the first reply from a NetWare server, some NDS objects may be
omitted from the list displayed by the Windows NT-based client. This may
prevent users from seeing servers or printers that ought to show up in
browse lists.
This problem does not prevent users from connecting to NDS resources that
exist; it only prevents some of the resources from being displayed when
browsing for network resources.
WORKAROUND
If possible, keep the size of the NDS tree to a minimum. Alternatively
obtain the hotfix mentioned below or update to the service pack containing
this fix when it is available.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 4.0.
This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 U.S.
Service
Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following
