This article was previously published under Q147799 SUMMARY
When you attempt to log on to a Windows NT domain controller from a LAN
Manager 2.2c client computer, an Error Net3779 appears.
CAUSE
This problem occurs if the computer name of the validating domain
controller begins with an invalid character, even though the user name and
password are valid. Computernames disallow the period (.), as well as the
characters below:
ASCII characters 1 - 31 decimal, as well as the following:
. " / \ [ ] : | < > + = ; , ?
RESOLUTION
Change the computername so that it does not begin with invalid characters.
