- Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0

SYMPTOMS
========
When you use Rcmd.exe from the Windows NT Server 4.0 Resource Kit and Windows NT
Workstation 4.0 Resource Kit to create a remote command that requires quotation
marks around its parameter(s), you receive an error.
See the following example:
C:\> rcmd \\myserver net start "computer browser"
Executing on \\myserver: net start computer browser
The service name is invalid.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185.
Remote server \\myserver disconnected
CAUSE
=====
RCMD strips the quotation marks from the command line (note this behavior on the
second line of the previous example) that results in a single multi- word
parameter being interpreted as two parameters.
RESOLUTION
==========
This problem was corrected in the Supplement Three. Supplements are available
for download from the following Microsoft Press Web site:
