SYMPTOMS
========
When an RPC application uses DCE rpc_ep_register to register endpoints, a
Windows NT 4.0 computer will only register endpoints on a single adapter into
the system's local endpoint map.
CAUSE
=====
The Microsoft RPC Endpoint Mapper did not store the adapter IP address as part
of the Endpoint Database.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT 4.0 or
Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition. For additional information,
please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
