The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5, 3.51, 4.0 
- Microsoft LAN Manager, version 2.2b 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The attempt to replicate a file with a long file name from a Windows NT
export directory to a FAT import directory on a LAN Manager server fails.
NO_SYNC.RP$ appears on the LAN Manager import directory.


Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT versions 3.5
and 3.51. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
