This article was previously published under Q321403 SYMPTOMS
When SNA Server receives a BIND that contains various routing
vectors and security subfields, you may receive an Access Violation.
Whether this behavior occurs depends on the length of the BIND request.
CAUSE
When SNA Server prepares the BIND response and tries to add the
enciphered data to the BIND, the buffer is overwritten, which causes an
Access Violation.
