MSTest directory. Therefore, an application configured to use any program in the
MSTest directory will fail to establish a connection to the server from a
Windows 3.1 client computer.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
versions 1.0 and 1.1. This problem has been corrected in Systems Management
Server version 1.2.
