The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.5
Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.5

SYMPTOMS

After you disconnect from the Gateway Service for NetWare in Windows NT version 3.5, an "Access Denied" message appears when you attempt to connect to a NetWare resource with a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) name from the NetWare network service.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because NetWare limits accounts to a single session per user account and when you disconnect from the Gateway Service for NetWare, the service is stopped but the network connection remains with the NetWare server.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT Workstation and Windows NT Server version 3.5. This problem was corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.5. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
