SUMMARY
=======
 
Microsoft TCPIP Sockets for Windows (using DBMSSOC3.DLL) connections are
only supported using Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 and
Microsoft TCPIP for Windows for Workgroups version 1.0. Microsoft TCPIP
sockets for Windows connections will fail if the initial TCP session setup
takes more than 5 seconds. When this problem occurs, DB-Library (DB-Lib)
returns the following error 10008 back to the client application:
 
   Bad token from SQL Server
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
If the initial TCP session setup takes more than 5 seconds and the DBMSSOC3
Network Library (Net-Library) is being used in its supported environment,
then error 10008 will be returned back to the client application. In the
event that a client receives this message under these conditions,
connectivity can be made using the Named Pipes Net-Library over TCP/IP.
 
If this work around is not a suitable option, please contact a SQL Server
Support Provider and be prepared to provide them with all error messages
and a description of your networking environment.
