SYMPTOMS
========

An SNA Server 4.0 system may experience an application exception in the
Snaservr.exe file in function SNPUPUTI when a PU PassThrough connection is
configured to use Format 0 XIDs.

When this occurs, a Drwtsn32.log file is generated in the Windows NT directory.
The Drwtsn32.log file will contain an entry similar to the following:

 Application exception occurred:
    App: snaservr.exe (pid=<process id>)
    When: <date> @ <time>
    Exception number: c0000005 (access violation)

In addition, SNA Server logs an Event 624 in the Windows NT Application Event log
similar to the following:

   

   Creating dump file C:\SNA\traces\snadump.log for Snaservr.exe

   EXPLANATION
   A process (Snaservr.exe) ended abnormally due to a protection
   violation or similar condition and a dump file Snadump.log has been
   created that contains information about the state of the process at
   the time of the exception. Register information is contained in your
   Windows NT root directory in the file Drwtsn32.log.

NOTE: This can only occur when SNA Server is configured to use PU PassThrough
connections and one of these connections is configured to use Format 0 XIDs in
the connection properties under the System Identification tab.

CAUSE
=====

The application exception is caused when SNA Server attempts to forward a Format
3 XID received on one PU PassThrough connection to its partner PU PassThrough
connection that is configured to use Format 0 XIDs.


WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, configure all PU PassThrough connections to use
Format 3 XIDs.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 4.0. This
problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 4.0 U.S. Service Pack.
