The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.1 
 - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.1

SUMMARY
=======

Windows NT uses the following standard NetBIOS error codes when communicating
with down level networked clients (such as Microsoft Windows for Workgroups
version 3.x, Microsoft Windows NT version 3.1, or Microsoft LAN Manager RAS
version 1.x).

   Error 640 - ERROR_NETBIOS_ERROR
   Error 650 - ERROR_SERVER_NOT_RESPONDING
   Error 715 - ERROR_TOO_MANY_LINE_ERRORS

NOTE: The Windows NT Remote Access Service uses these codes with certain errors
as well.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The code returned by 639=ERROR_CANNOT_GET_LANA is a not a NetBIOS error code,
but a RAS error that can be returned by the RAS Manager service RasAllocateRoute
and RasActivateRoute API calls (made to enable network traffic for the AMB
session on the link). This error is typically due to configuration problem,
rather than a line problem.


The following list summarizes all the Code=x extended error codes currently
reported:

session using our proprietary AMB authentication protocol.
