   description.

CAUSE

This error can occur if the correct "Bindings=" setting is not used in the PROTOCOL.INI file.

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, use the Banyan Vines PCCONFIG.EXE configuration utility. For information about using this utility, please refer to your Banyan Vines documentation, or contact your network administrator or Banyan Vines Technical Support.

Using PCCONFIG.EXE, modify this setting: 

   PROTOCOL.INI BINDINGS=
Change the setting to the same value in the "Bindings=<xxxx>" line in the PROTOCOL.INI file, where <xxxx> is the internal name of the network adapter driver.

   Bindings=EXP16$
In this example, the internal name of the network adapter driver is EXP16$.
