The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Systems Management Server versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When two identical network interface cards (NICs) are installed on a Windows NT
client, the SMS Administrator is sometimes unable to display both cards when
using the "View a table of data records" display in the "Netcard Properties"
window.
CAUSE
=====
This problem occurs when the parameters retrieved by Invwin32.exe are equal for
both cards (example with an ENET-TR Netflex/Netflex-2):
Manufacturer = <ENET-TR Netflex/Netflex-2 COMPAQ>
IRQ = 0
Port Address = <nothing>
The "IRQ=0" means there is no IRQ parameter in the registry (in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree, at the subkey
SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NETFLX1\Parameters).
WORKAROUND
==========
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
versions 1.1 and 1.2. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
