SYMPTOMS
========
The new LINKCFG.EXE program used to support command-line installation of link
services was not properly saving registry entries when installing DCA SDLC or
DCA X.25 link services.
Using identical configuration parameters to configure from both manager and
linkcfg.exe resulted in these differences in the registry:
Manager
47286: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DCASYNC\
Parameters\ExtraParameters Data1LS DCAX251
47335: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DCAX251\
Parameters\ExtraParameters DeviceName DCADL$03
47348: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DCAX251\
Parameters\ExtraParameters OSVCRng 0048-0050
Linkcfg

CAUSE
