w9xServiceAt Function and Server Name

Keywords:    w9xServiceAt

w9XServiceAt Notes:

1. Due to the cross-platform nature of the ww9x extender, the first parameter (server name) cannot be a blank string. It should specify an NT machine. If it's blank, it should be giving him an "Invalid server name" error.

   So, rather than the following:

      w9xServiceAt("", "MyDomain", 4096, "Computer Browser", 101)
   

   use:

      w9xServiceAt("\\MYSERVER", "MyDomain", 4096, "Computer Browser", 101)
   

2. We've also had reports that w95ServiceAt and w9XServiceAt do not work with domains other than the primary domain controller, but thus far, we have not been able to reproduce this bug in our testing.

w95ServiceAt Notes:

You *can* specify a null string for the server name in the first parameters of the w95ServiceAt function.
