SYMPTOMS
========
When a remote procedure call (RPC) tries to determine the size of the LPWSTR
variable in the DHCP_Subnet_Info structure on your Windows NT DHCP server,
DHCPSSVC.DLL causes an Access Violation.
CAUSE
=====
The pointers for the NetBiosName and HostName strings point to random memory
addresses.
Due to a problem in DHCPSSVC.DLL the NetBiosName and HostName strings are not
initialized to NULL, even though they appear to be NULL in the SubNet
information subkey of the Windows NT Registry.

==========
To correct this problem, install the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT
version 3.51.
STATUS
