an "Insufficient virtual memory to complete this task" error message.

The Nwwks.dll dynamic-link library has a memory leak that occurs when you view
NetWare or Windows NT servers running the File and Print Services for NetWare
(FPNW) service with more than 32 volumes.

problem was corrected in the U.S. Service Pack 2 for Windows NT 4.0. For
