To all ADSM Win32 users,

We have a few customers reported a problem with Win 32 client level 3.1.0.5 that
it's using the node name to construct the filespace name (ie, \\nodename\c$)
instead
of the machine name (ie, \\machinename\c$) if the node name & the machine name
don't match.  The apar # is IC21959.  The problem is due to the fact that the
node name
in dsm.opt is specified before the domain statement.  This will be fixed ASAP.

Problem:
     machine name defined as MACHINE1
     in dsm.opt:  nodename FILESERVER1
                            domain c:

     when you issue dsmc i, you get message
                 ANS1134E Drive \\FILESERVER1\C$ is an invalid drive
specification

Work around:
    Modify dsm.opt so that the domain statement appears before the nodename.
        domain c:
        nodename FILESERVER1
