SYMPTOMS
========
When you are using the Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) or the Gateway
Services for NetWare (GSNW), the following command lines do not work:
dir \\ndstreename\cn=server_object.container.container\volume\subdir
dir \\ndstreename\volume_object.container.container\subdir
CAUSE
=====
The Multiple UNC Provider (MUP) does not correctly handle UNC names consisting
of server objects instead of volume objects.
RESOLUTION
==========
Use volume objects when using the MUP (and UNC path names).
An example of a successful command would be to do a directory listing to the
container and not to the lower level subdirectory. For example:
Dir \\NTMARST\RED_41A_SYS.MAIN.MS
