RpcNsxxx() APIs Not Supported by Windows NT Locator

Article ID: Q104318

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Win32 Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows NT versions 3.1 and 3.5

The RpsNSxxx group and profile name service application programming interfaces (APIs), such as RpcNsProfileEltAdd(), are supported by our RPC run time; however, they are not supported by the Windows NT Locator, which is the default RPC name service provider. If you attempt to make a call to one of these APIs, an error 1764, "request not supported," will be returned. Because the RpcNSxxx APIs are supported in the run time, name service providers other than the Locator, such as the DCE CDS, can be accessed.
