5661.0. "probl. saving Excel/Word docs on file service" by MUCCS1::GRAF () Mon Feb 10 1997 01:04

Hi,

I am experiencing problems with an NT3.51 Workstation client accessing  a File 
Service on an Ultrix 4.3a / PW4.1 - server. 

Everytime when a document is opened or saved there are several log entries 
in the eventlogger:

source: Rdr   Categ. None Event: 3005 User: N/A Desc.: The redirector receive
an incorrectly formatted response from (servername). Type: Warning

I saw this only with Word / Excel applications. When i copied the documents with 
the file manager, there are no problems. 
Most of the time there are just event entries but no user impacts. But once or 
twice a day there are also application hangs while trying to save a document on
the Ultrix file service. 

I took an Iris trace while saving a Word document. 

You can see quite a numer of the following entries during the storing of a
file.

... PCSERVER <--	NTCLIENT   smb c Write F=0066 Cnt=0 Off=1536 
... NTCLIENT <--	PCSERVER   smb Frame too short 

any idea what the cause could be?
