Improve SNA Manager Handling of Host Security Domain Deletion (164911)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server 3.0, when used with:
- the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
This article was previously published under Q164911 SYMPTOMS
If a host security domain is deleted using SNA Server Manager, the Windows
NT Server group account for the domain remains active. There are no
observable consequences of this problem, however, it will not be clear to
the Windows NT Server account administrator that the host security domain
group is still being used with host account synchronization.
CAUSE
SNA Server Manager was only removing the host security domain from
the SNA Server configuration file, though no changes are made to the
Window NT Server group account.
NOTE: The registry entries associated with this host security domain are
not removed, because SNA Server Manager does not know which computers
contain the domain entries for the SNA Host Account Synchronization
service (SNAHOSTPROCESS).
RESOLUTION
An update to SNA Server 3.0 is available which corrects this problem. When
a host security domain is removed, SNA Server Manager now disables the
Windows NT group account associated with the host security domain.
The following module has been updated:
<Snaroot>\System\Hostproc.exe
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0.
This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 U.S.
Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on
