Q174751: XADM: RPC Fails After Installation of GSNW

Article: Q174751
Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): 4.0 SP3
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): 
Last Modified: 07-DEC-2000

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0 SP3 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Microsoft Exchange Server communicates via remote procedure call (RPC) within a
site. If Gateway Services for NetWare (GSNW) is installed on a Windows NT 3.51
or Windows NT 4.0 computer after Service Pack 2 is installed, RPC traffic within
the Exchange site will fail.

CAUSE
=====

Installing GSNW from an older version can cause Windows NT protocols to fail due
to a mismatch in the versions of RPC files.

RESOLUTION
==========

Reinstall the latest service pack for Windows NT or the at least the current
service pack currently being used on the Windows NT computer.
