OCIW32.DLL initialization failing

I am getting the following error when trying to run OCI based software under WinNT4sp6a with Oracle2000 client:

"Initialization of the dynamic link library C:\ORANT\BIN\OCIW32.dll failed.
The process is terminating abnormally."

The code is C++, compiled under Visual Studio 6.0 Enterprise Edition, from the msdn subscription pack, January 2000.

If I remove all code related to NETAPI32.dll, and recompile, I do not get the error. Only the combination of linking NETAPI32.dll and OCIW32.dll together causes this error.

Has anyone seen this error before, under these conditions, and is there a known fix?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
