ID: Q160267

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0
Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
Microsoft LAN Manager Server version 2.2

SYMPTOMS

If a Lanman Manager 2.1 Client, Lan Manager 2.2 Server, or IBM OS/2 Warp system attempts to xcopy a file on a Windows NT 4.0 system to itself or location on the same or another Windows NT 4.0 system, the operation will fail as follows:

SYS1192: XCOPY cannot access the source or target drive.

CAUSE

The server is incorrectly responding to the Server Message Block (SMB) C transact2 Query path info, File = <filename>

A network trace will show the following SMB response from the server:

The expected response is:


   SMB: R transact2 Open (response)
