1.0  Introduction
-----------------
This release of Microsoft Windows NT 3.1 U.S. Service Pack 2b contains all 
the components that have been fixed since the retail release of Windows NT 
3.1 and Windows NT Advanced Server 3.1.  The Service Pack is easy to apply
from within Windows NT and changes only those files that were originally 
set up on the Windows NT or Windows NT Advanced Server system.  Service
Pack releases are cumulative:  they contain all previous fixes, as well as
any new fixes made to the system.



2.0  Installation Instructions for the Windows NT U.S. Service Pack
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Installing the Service Pack from a floppy disk:
1.  Insert Service Pack Disk 1 into the floppy drive.
2.  At the Windows NT Command Prompt, change to that floppy drive (that is, 
    A: or B:) and type UPDATE.
3.  Follow the instructions given on the screen.

Installing the Service Pack from a CD-ROM:
1.  Insert the Service Pack CD-ROM disk into the CD-ROM drive.
2.  At the Windows NT Command Prompt, change to that CD-ROM drive, then
    change to the i386, MIPS, or ALPHA directory (depending upon whether
    you have an Intel, MIPS, or ALPHA AXP CPU), and type UPDATE.
3.  Follow the instructions given on the screen.

Installing the Service Pack from a network drive:
1.  At the Windows NT Command Prompt, type the command to connect to the 
    network drive on which the Service Pack files reside.
2.  Change to that network drive and type UPDATE.
3.  Follow the instructions given on the screen.



2.1  User Notes
---------------

*** Installing Service Pack 2b on a Dual-Boot computer with the Windows NT 3.5
    (Daytona) Beta

If your computer is dual-booting Windows NT 3.1 and the Windows NT 3.5
(Daytona) Beta, you must perform the following steps before you install
Service Pack 2b:

1. Copy the files NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM in your root drive to NTLDR.SAV 
   and NTDETECT.SAV.

2. Install the Service Pack.

3. Copy NTLDR.SAV to NTLDR, and NTDETECT.SAV to NTDETECT.COM.

This will allow your machine to continue dual-booting both versions of
Windows NT.


*** Running the File System Update from the Windows NT 3.5 (Daytona) Beta

Once you have installed Service Pack 2b, you should not install the file
system update for Windows NT 3.1 from the Windows NT 3.5 (Daytona) Beta.
Service Pack 2b contains all the fixes that are in the Windows NT 3.5
(Daytona) Beta file system update, as well as other fixes.


*** Issues with MS-DOS-based Communications Programs

If you experience difficulties with MS-DOS based communications programs
after installing Service Pack 2b, change the configuration of the program to
enable software flow control (XON/XOFF) instead of hardware flow control
(RTS/CTS).  Changing this parameter has been found to correct problems with
these applications in most cases.


*** Installing the Service Pack on a System with an OEM supplied HAL.DLL

If your Windows NT system uses a HAL.DLL supplied by an OEM (one that was not
installed from the Microsoft Windows NT 3.1 disk set) you need to follow the
steps below to reinstall the OEM HAL after the Service Pack Update program has
been run, but before the machine is rebooted.  If you do not reinstall the OEM
HAL properly, your system may not boot after installing the Service Pack
(because the OEM HAL will have been replaced by a HAL from the Service Pack).
If this happens, use your Emergency Repair disk to repair your system, then
follow the steps below.

1)  Before the Update program is run, copy the HAL.DLL file to HAL.OEM to
    save it.  On an x86 machine, HAL.DLL is located in the %windir%\system32
    directory.  On a MIPS or Alpha machine, the following command should
    locate it:

      DIR /S %windir%\..\hal.dll

2)  After the Update program has been run, but before you have it reboot
    your system, start a Command Prompt window, and restore the HAL.DLL you
    saved in step (1).  On an x86 machine,

      CD %windir%\system32
      COPY HAL.OEM HAL.DLL

3)  Now switch back to the Update program and have it reboot your system.


*** Configuring the NWLink Transport

When configuring the NWLink transport using the Network option in Control 
Panel, you must enter the Network Number as a hexadecimal value rather 
than as a decimal value as stated in the Help file. 


*** Converting Macintosh Filenames to Win32 Filenames

In general, the Windows NT (Win32) interface can view and use
filenames created by a Macintosh client.  There are two
exceptions, where the filename is an illegal Win32 filename:

    The Macintosh client creates a filename that ends with a period.

    The Macintosh client creates a filename that ends with a blank space.

In both of these cases, the Windows NT interface displays the filename 
with a thick vertical bar (|) or question mark (?) character replacing 
the final period or space.  Only the last character is replaced.  
For example:

    Macintosh filename         Windows NT displays the filename as . . .
    ------------------         -----------------------------------------
    An important file.         An important file|
    Very important file ...    Very important file ..|
    One space at the end       One space at the end|
    Two spaces at the end      Two spaces at the end |

You can view and use the converted filenames in the Windows NT interface.  
You cannot view and use them from the Command Prompt (CMD.EXE).  A Win16 
application that converts long filenames to the 8.3 format can convert 
these filenames to the 8.3 format.

For Macintosh filenames that already exist on the Services for Macintosh 
server, before this updated functionality, the server will rename such 
files the first time they are accessed.

The final character is mapped to an unused UNICODE character (0xF000+xx).  
Windows NT does this same mapping for characters that are illegal in the 
NTFS file system.


*** Updating Printer Drivers Installed for a Different Platform

The Service Pack only updates printer drivers for the platform you install it
on.  For example: If you update an Intel-based print server that you have MIPS
computers printing to, it needs to have the MIPS version of the printer driver
installed. The Service Pack only copies the Intel-based printer driver to the
print server. In this case, you need to copy over the appropriate driver by
hand.

The following procedure describes how to install the Postscript printer
driver by hand.

1.  Rename PSCRIPT.DLL and PSCRPTUI.DLL in the directory below to
    PSCRIPT.OLD and PSCRPTUI.OLD

      system32\spool\drivers\<platform>

    where <platform> is w32mips, w32alpha, or w32x86.

2.  For MIPS or ALPHA drivers, copy the PSCRIPT.DLL and PSCRPTUI.DLL files
    from the MIPS or ALPHA subdirectories on the CD-ROM to the subdirectory
    in Step 1 above. For Intel-based drivers, type

      expand -r PSCRIPT.DL_ <subdirectory from step 1>
      expand -r PSCRPTUI.DL_ <subdirectory from step 1>

    from the i386 subdirectory on the CD-ROM where <subdirectory> is the
    subdirectory from Step 1.


*** Emergency Repair Disk

If it is necessary to use the Windows NT Emergency Repair Disk to repair
your Windows NT system at some time after you apply the Service Pack, you
will need to re-apply the Service Pack after the repair is completed.  This
is because the Emergency Repair Disk repairs your system by restoring your
original Windows NT setup.  After the repair has completed, simply follow
the above Installation Instructions to re-apply the Service Pack.


*** Adding New Components to the System

If new software or hardware components are changed or added to your system
after you have applied the Service Pack, it will be necessary to re-apply
the Service Pack.  This is because the files taken from the original Windows
NT disk set may not be equivalent to the files on the Service Pack disk set.
It is not possible to install new components directly from the Service Pack
media (such as a new keyboard or printer driver).  New components must be
installed from the original product media.


*** Command Reference Colors

Some commands in the Command Reference (NTCMDS.HLP) list of commands are not
visible if your system colors are set to Window Text = white and Window
Background = black.  Change your Windows Background to a lighter color to see
all the commands in the list.


*** Previous Versions of NTBackup

Backup tapes created with the version of NTBackup shipping with this Service
Pack cannot be restored or read with versions of NTBackup shipped prior to
Service Pack 2.  However, tapes created with previous versions of NTBackup can
be read and restored by the version of NTBackup in this Service Pack.  NTBackup
now uses Unicode whenever it writes to tape, which was not understood by
previous versions of NTBackup.


*** Previous Versions of Services For Macintosh

To correct a problem with file names ending in a space or period, a change was
made to the Services For Macintosh software which makes earlier versions of
this software unable to correctly read Macintosh file names on the Windows NT
Advanced Server system.  The new Services For Macintosh software will alter the
NTFS file name to allow Macintosh clients to properly view them.  This means
that once you update your Services For Macintosh system files with this Service
Pack, versions of the SFM software prior to Service Pack 2 will not function
properly if installed on the system.


*** Installing Symbol Files from the CD-ROM

To install the symbol files corresponding to the new binaries in Service
Pack 2a, do the following (assuming your CD-ROM drive is D:, your symbol files
are located in the C:\WINNT\SYMBOLS directory, and you are installing the
files for an x86 machine):

    XCOPY /S /U /D D:\SUPPORT\DEBUG\I386\SYMBOLS C:\WINNT\SYMBOLS

This will copy the Service Pack 2a .DBG files over the existing versions of
these files.  The XCOPY command shown will copy only those .DBG files that are
already installed (/U switch), and only those with a more recent time-date
stamp (/D switch).

2.3  Descriptions of Bugs Fixed in Windows NT U.S. Service Pack 2b
------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------
Q102117: Specified Home Directory May Default to USERS\DEFAULT
--------------------------------------------------------------

On an NTFS partition, if the access permission is removed for the
Everyone group on a specific user's home directory, the home directory
will default to the USERS\DEFAULT directory, even if the specific user

Q102819: Error Moving File If File Already Exists on Destination Drive
----------------------------------------------------------------------

In Microsoft Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server, when you move a file 
from one logical drive to another, if that file already exists on the other

   (one by one) with File Manager. After a while, File Manager shows the
   wrong number of files in the directory.

4. Press F5 and note that the files with umlauts are still not
   displayed.

5. Close and restart File Manager. Note that the files still are not
displayed.

Macintosh.

---------------------------------------------------
Q107242: Local Path Set to UNC Path in User Manager
---------------------------------------------------

When you upgrade from a LAN Manager server to Windows NT, in User
Manager you may notice some strange behavior. In the User Environment
Profile dialog box, instead of containing the proper path to your home
directory, the Local Path field contains a universal naming convention
(UNC) path. If you attempt to continue with this path, User Manager
informs you that the UNC path is invalid. You are required to enter a
drive letter in the Local Path field. Also, if you choose connect to
your home directory, the information in the Local Path field is not
reproduced and you must retype it.

Also, Winlogon will log you on with an invalid local path and assign
the home directory to the root of drive C without cautioning you.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Q107243: Setup: Some COMPAQ Qvision Video Adapters Are Not Detected

You may experience problems working with files from a shared NTFS
directory on a Windows NT computer from an MS-DOS computer. When
filenames are not long, that is, when they fit into the "8.3" FAT
filename convention, spaces are not removed. For example, if the
following filename is in an NTFS directory, the MS-DOS client would
see no change:

   A TEST.BAT

When you try to copy this file or perform other file operations,
filename error messages appear.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Q107248: File Manager Hangs Opening Many New Network Drive Windows

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Q107448: Publisher 2.0a May GP Fault Due to Window Property Problem
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Microsoft Publisher 2.0a may generate a general protection (GP) fault
because of the way Windows NT handles window properties. In Microsoft
Windows 3.1, window properties are globally allocated. In Windows NT,
they are allocated separately for each process. Because of this
difference, some 16-bit Windows-based applications may exhibit
problems under Windows NT.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Q107449: Cannot Start Application with Long Path (64+ Characters)

Q107456: Must Restart Computer Running ACLCONV on Large Volume
--------------------------------------------------------------

When you run ACLCONV on a large volume with many directories (15,000 or
more) ACLCONV may fail and you may need to restart Windows NT. ACLCONV uses
the paging file to store access control list (ACL) information. One of its
processes does not release some of this memory for each ACL entry. With a
very large number of directory and file entries, this problem can quickly
fill up your paging file.

The following error message may appear:

   Error reading data file

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Q107509: Word for Windows 6.0 Closing Header Toolbar Hangs Windows NT

phase of restoring a tape.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Q107633: Cannot Backup Files Remotely with No File Permissions
--------------------------------------------------------------

You have an account with backup and administrative privileges. From
File Manager, either logged onto the Windows NT domain controller or
another Windows NT Advanced Server, you cannot access the files in a 
directory for which your account has no permissions. However, from the 
Backup program, you can see files in the same directory if you are logged
onto the Windows NT Advanced Server sharing the files. In other words, you 
are able to backup files without file permissions locally, but not remotely.

------------------------------------------------------
Q107644: Print Manager: 100% CPU Usage During Printing

Microsoft Mail or Microsoft Access. The redirector pauses for as long as
three seconds after closing a file it has written to before it releases the
write cache.

---------------------------------------------------------
Q108056: Macintosh Finder Sometimes Does Not Display File
---------------------------------------------------------

You can sometimes not see a file in a shared directory on the server from
your Macintosh computer, while the same file is visible from your Windows
NT server. You can perform actions on the file from the Macintosh, but
often the Finder does not display the file.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Q108057: Win32 Applications Don't Support Some Macintosh Filenames
------------------------------------------------------------------

Some filenames created on a Macintosh computer are incompatible with Win32
application programming interfaces (APIs). These filenames include spaces
or are very long (256 or more characters). NTFS supports these file names,
but all Win32 applications do not. Because of this, unexpected results can
occur when performing file operations on these files.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Q108058: Not All Groups Are Listed in File Manager in User Browser
------------------------------------------------------------------

On a domain with more than 50 groups, you may see only a small percentage
listed in the permissions editor in File Manager (in the user browse list).
You are able to access all the groups, but have to type the names of the
ones not listed.

------------------------------------------------------------
Q108103: Service Pack 1 Resets Permissions on an NTFS Volume
------------------------------------------------------------

If Windows NT or Windows NT Advanced Server is installed on an NTFS volume
and the U.S. Service Pack 1 or CSD001 patch is applied, directory/file
permissions for the Everyone group will be reset to the default in any
directory that had files modified by the patch (such as ROOT, WINNT, and
WINNT\SYSTEM32 subdirectories). For example, if you change the permissions
for Everyone on drive C (which is NTFS, and contains the Windows NT
installation) and all its subdirectories to read-only. After you apply the
CSD or Service Pack, the permissions for Everyone will be reset to [RWXD]
in the C:\, C:\WINNT, C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 and all other directories that had
files modified by the patch.

--------------------------------
Q108104: STOP 0x1E - STREAMS.SYS

------------------------------------------------
Q108240: Setup Fails with IBM Thinkpad Model 750
------------------------------------------------

When you install Windows NT on the IBM ThinkPad Model 750, it proceeds
through the text-based portion of the setup program but stops responding
(hangs) in the graphical portion. When you restart the system, NTLDR, the
operating system loader tries to start and produces STOP screen errors or
fails to access the boot device and generates the following error message:

   Could not find mult(0)fdisk(0)partition(0).

Different variations of this message may appear depending on how many hard
disk drives you have and how many partitions you have on each drive.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Q108263: Err Msg: The Conversion Failed...Was Not Converted to NTFS

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Q112201: Spooling More than 127 Jobs to Print Queue Causes Corruption
---------------------------------------------------------------------

After you spool 127 print jobs to a print queue from Windows NT on an
ALPHA-based computer, the following print jobs are corrupt.

When the 127th job is spooled, subsequent jobs have "spooling" status when
examined by Print Manager. As jobs are removed from the queue or printed,
the "spooling" jobs remain in "spooling" status. If the queue is purged,
the "spooling" jobs and some of the queued jobs cannot be deleted. The
spool directory indicates that filenames for the spooled files are reused
beginning at 32. That is, the counter for the spool filenames goes from 127
to 32. If you restart the computer, the jobs that couldn't be deleted are
no longer displayed in Print Manager and they can be deleted from
WINNT\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRINTERS.

---------------------------------------------------------------
Q112455: Err Msg: STOP 0xC0000021A Starting Windows Application
---------------------------------------------------------------

When you log on a second time after you restart a Windows NT print server
and then start a Windows-based application with the remote printer set as
the default printer, this STOP message appears:

   STOP: 0xc000021a
   The Windows Subsystem system process terminated unexpectedly with a
   status of 0xc0000006

This problem occurs on a Windows NT print server that has a remote printer
connection to its own local printer. For example:

   \\MYPRINTSERVER

has a local printer shared as

   \\MYPRINTSERVER\PRINTER1

and also has a network connection to

   \\MYPRINTSERVER\PRINTER1.

This can be a problem with mandatory profiles that contain the remote
printer connection. When you log on to the print server using the mandatory
profile, you get a remote printer connection (by means of the profile) to
the locally connected printer. Windows NT clients (where the remote
printer connection is the only printer) work correctly.

Q112871: SNMP Always Returns an Error Index of One
--------------------------------------------------

When a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management station sends
multiple requests within a single SNMP packet and one of those requests is
in error, the response from Windows NT always indicates that the error
occurred on the first request. This misleads management stations that send
multiple requests in a single packet and require specific responses.

------------------------------------------------------------
Q112872: Access Violation in SNMP When Processing Short OIDs

   Address 80269287 has base at 80268000 - ARROW.SYS

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Q113576: WinSocket App's Reject Connection Requests with Reset Frames
---------------------------------------------------------------------

If a Windows NT TCP/IP WinSocket server application (for example, Microsoft
NT SQL Server) is bombarded with multiple simultaneous TCP\IP connection
requests, it quickly begins to reject requests by replying with a TCP\IP
Reset Frame.

The symptom may be difficult to detect. If you trace this problem with a
protocol analyzer you will see that the 7th or 8th TCP SYN connection
request frames are replied to with TCP Reset bit set, which tells the
sending station that the frame was received but the server did not have
the resources to process the connection request.

This might show up as a delayed or slower connection. The client should
attempt the connection again after waiting for a timeout (so you don't
see an error) but this can slow the connection in certain types of systems.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Q113709: NTBACKUP Doesn't Create Set Description from Command Line
------------------------------------------------------------------

After you install U.S. Service Pack 2, the Windows NT Backup program
(NTBACKUP) no longer creates a set description when you start it from the
command line. For example, if you type the following and then press ENTER

   NTBACKUP backup C:\DOS /D "TEST"

NTBACKUP does not create the set description of TEST. Instead, it leaves
the set description blank on the tape.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Q113909: NTBACKUP Creates Additional Backup Set Description File
----------------------------------------------------------------

If you update Windows NT to Service Pack 2 and back up a network drive from
the MS-DOS command prompt, the Windows NT Backup program (NTBACKUP) creates
a second backup set description file. For example, if from drive C you run

   NTBACKUP BACKUP H: /R /D "Backup" /L "C:\Backup.log"

where H is the logical network drive, two backup set description files
are created: one for drive H and one for drive C. The file for drive C
contains no information.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Q113941: Err Msg: "The Handle is Invalid"  with Console Applications
--------------------------------------------------------------------
