SYMPTOMS
========
A Windows NT NetBIOS application's network control block (NCB) may appear
corrupted. If Ncb.listen is posted with an asterisk (*) for the called name, the
string "nnection context" is returned in the NCB callname structure whenever
Ncb.listen is canceled before a client responds to it.
CAUSE
=====
The remote address of the client should be copied to the NCB structure on the
completion of the listen. However, because a client did not respond to the
listen, the unexpected string is copied to the structure.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT versions 3.5x and
4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Because the NCB callname is not used when Ncb.listen is canceled, this problem
does not negatively affect NetBIOS applications.
Additional query words: prodnt call cancelled
