also a trace of the win2k3 server when there are more or less then 3 volumes.

to see if the 6 0x00  extra bytes are constant...

what happens when the amount of label cause the data_count to be greater 
then max_data_count?

a trace of this would be fine too...

does the win2k3 return NT_STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL

or does returns paged results....
