CAUSE ===== This problem occurs when all of the following conditions are true: - Either the Windows NT 4.0 client or the computer running Systems Management Server on Windows NT 4.0 are configured with the French regional settings. - These two computers are located in different domains, without a trust relationship. - These two computers attempt to use the same user account with a different password. WORKAROUND ========== To work around this problem, do any of the following: - Use the same user account and password. - Use the trust relationship (for example, DOMAIN2 trusts DOMAIN1) and include the DOMAIN1\MFST user account to the local administrator's group of DOMAIN2. - Use the English regional settings.
