JSI Tip 7838. When a Windows NT 5.x client logs onto a Windows NT 4.0 domain, enabling DNS name resolution has no effect?

When you set the EnableDNS Value Name to 1, so that NBT queries DNS for names that cannot be resolved by WINS, broadcast, or the LMHOSTS file, DNS name resolution is NOT used?

When trying to resolve certain NetBIOS group names, the NetBIOS transport explicitly blocks DNS requests for names where the byte 16 identifier is one of the following:

<01>
<1B>
<1C>
<1D>
<1E>
