The above errors can occur when a Windows NT domain has FPNW Servers that use
the same computer name as the SMS Logon Servers(Windows NT domain controllers).

Make the FPNW Server Names unique names within the network.
NOTE: The FPNW Help file contains the following statement:

The FPNW Server Name is the name that NetWare client computers use to refer to
the server. This name must be different than the server's regular server name.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2. We are currently researching this problem and will
post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
