SYMPTOMS

SNA Server Manager may prevent a user from making changes to the configuration file even though the user has been granted WRITE permission through the Config File Security folder in the SNA subdomain properties.

WORKAROUND

In addition to granting a user WRITE permissions, the users must also be granted the right to MANAGE AUDITING AND SECURITY LOG within the Windows NT User Manager Policy/User Rights folder, which can be found under Policies in the User Manager. This must be done on both the user's local Windows NT computer (if the SNA Server resides on a Windows NT standalone or member server) and in the Windows NT domain.
