SYMPTOMS
========
When you run the Windows NT Resource Kit utility Remote Command Service (RCMD),
you may receive the following error message:
Failed to connect to <\\\\servername>, Error = 123
CAUSE
=====
This error message may appear because, while in an interactive multisession, you
entered the server name with leading backslashes.
RESOLUTION
==========
When in interactive multisession mode, RCMD prompts for the server name on which
to run a remote command and expects only the NetBIOS name of the server without
the leading backslashes.
For more information on the proper usage for Rcmd.exe, type the following at a
command prompt and press ENTER:
" rcmd /? " (without the quotation marks)
For more information on RCMD, see the following article in the Microsoft
knowledge base:
