The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS
After you install Windows NT Server Tools on a Windows for Workgroups
version 3.11 computer and attempt to administer a Windows NT Server using
any one of the Server Tools, the following error message may appear:
The remote procedure call failed and did not execute.
Do you want to select another Domain to Administer?
RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, you must modify the Registry on the remote
Windows NT Server.
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system-wide
problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct them.
Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of
Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own risk.
- Run Registry Editor (REGEDT32.EXE).
- From the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree, go to the following key:
\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
- Find the following:
Value Name: SizReqBuf
Data Type: REG_DWORD
- If the value exists, change the data to a number larger than the
default data of 4356 (decimal).
If the value does not exist:
a. From the Edit menu, select Add Value.
b. Enter the information above.
c. For the data, enter a number larger than the default data.
- Quit Registry Editor.
- Either shutdown and restart Windows NT, or from a command prompt,
type the following commands (pressing ENTER after each line):
net stop server
net start server
net start netlogon (if the Netlogon service has not started)
You must also update your Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 client with
the files located in the \CLIENTS\WFW\UPDATE subdirectory on the Windows NT
Server version 3.5 CD-ROM as follows:
- Close Windows for Workgroups
- From MS-DOS, copy the following files to your Windows root directory
(this is C:\WINDOWS by default):
NET.EXE 450,262 09/04/94 08:07a
- From MS-DOS, copy the following files to your Windows System directory
(this is C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM by default):
NDIS.386 27,846 09/04/94 08:07a
NETAPI.DLL 109,120 09/04/94 08:07a
NWNBLINK.386 37,964 09/04/94 08:07a
