SYMPTOMS
When you are using the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks and you are
connected to a NetWare volume on which long filename support has been
enabled, you may receive the following error message if you change to a
directory with a long filename and then use the DIR command:
Path Not Found
This problem may occur when you change to a directory with a long filename
from a command prompt using the directory's 8.3 alias instead of its long
filename.
Note that this problem occurs only at a command prompt; it does not occur
when you are using Windows Explorer or My Computer.
RESOLUTION
To prevent this problem, use the directory's long filename instead of its
8.3 alias when you change to the directory at a command prompt.
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
