SYMPTOMS
When you use BW-Connect NFS version 3.5 for Windows NT with Windows NT
version 3.51, virtual DOS machines (VDMs) requiring keyboard input stop
responding (hang). For example, if you run an MS-DOS based-text editor, the
VDM hangs. You cannot use the Task List End Task button to close the MS-DOS
Command Prompt.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because BW-Connect NFS version 3.5 is incompatible with
the way Windows NT 3.51 handles universal naming conversion (UNC) names.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, obtain BW-Connect NFS version 3.6 for Windows
NT. Version 3.6 includes a new NFS driver specifically written for Windows
NT version 3.51. For additional information:
