SYMPTOMS
========
Applications that use remote procedure calls (RPCs) may fail when they attempt
to communicate over a remote access service (RAS) link between two computers
running Windows NT 4.0 using the NetBEUI protocol.
CAUSE
=====
This problem occurs because the Binding Analysis in the Network Control Panel
incorrectly writes the LANA Registry parameters for Dial-Out modems.
Additionally, the RPC components fail to attempt to connect over the other
LANAs.

NT 4.0.
