SYMPTOMS

When you run Windows NT Server Tools User Manager for Domains or Print Manager

The MS-DOS-based client network operating systems (Network Client for MS-DOS and
LAN Manager for MS-DOS), use basic redirectors that do not support named pipes.

RESOLUTION
==========

To correct this problem:

- Configure Network Client for MS-DOS or LAN Manager for MS-DOS to use the full
  redirector.

-or-

- Use Windows for Workgroups 3.11.
