SMS: File Transfer Window Freezes

• Microsoft Systems Management Server version 1.2

SYMPTOMS

While in the midst of a file transfer session with a Windows 95 or 16-bit Windows client, the Personal Computer Property Help Desk window freezes and none of the Remote buttons work. Dragging the border or moving the window results in window "footprinting," and the Local Files and Remote Files lists do not redraw completely.

This problem may also occur when a file copy is not in progress.

CAUSE

The File Transfer Slave window was closed on the client side.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, select another Properties item and then select the Help Desk item again.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.2. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
