Windows NT Resource Kit Includes Incorrect Definition of LSN

ID: Q109441

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT Resource Kit for Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1

Page 633 of the Windows NT Resource Guide (volume 1 of the Microsoft Windows NT Resource Kit) states:


   "When two computers establish a session via NBF, there is an exchange of
   Least Significant Numbers (LSN)."

This is incorrect.

LSN stands for Local Session Number. This is a one byte number (0-255), which is part of Network Control Block structure. It indicates the session number the user[redirector] has with another name on the network, and is a key variable in the 254-session limit of the NetBIOS architecture.
