4024.10Netbios bug when FDDIUTRTSC::EISINKNo Kipling apes todayTue Feb 25 1997 08:0133
    Paul,
    
    yes this has been resolved. The problem was that part of the netlogon
    the PATHWORKS cluster alias name , which is a NETBIOS group name', has
    to be resolved.
    The find name request is sent out and the logon server sents the
    response.
    However when the netlogon is served by a backup domain controller or
    primary domain controller which has a FDDI controller the source
    address in the data link header is not AA-00-04-00 but the physical
    hardaware address.
    This is a netbios bug when the device is a FDDI device. When the local
    server sees this it tries to connect to object 64 (LMMCP) and the node
    name the NETBIOS name which is incorrect,
    
    SO, when the logon server is a cluster it can fail when :
    
    	- The PATHWORKS cluster alias is _NOT_ the same as the DECnet
    	  cluster alias. Which is what we recommend.
    
    	- The PATHWORKS cluster alias is the same as the DECnet cluster
    	  alias and the DECnet cluster alias is _not_ defined in the local
    	  decnet database.
    
    
    	- The machine name of the logon server is _NOT_ the same as the
    	  DECnet nodename.
    
    So to get this properly fixed open an IPMT and refer to cfs.46593.
    We've a netbios fix on the shelf.
