APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Application Center 2000 Standard Edition

SYMPTOMS
The Inetinfo.exe process may cause an access violation on computers that are running Microsoft Application Center 2000 when the following conditions are true:
 * The Request Forwarding feature is enabled.
 * There are large Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) post requests.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the Request Forwarding feature contains a hard coded limit of 32,768 bytes for an SSL-encoded message from the client. Large posts can exceed the 32,768 byte limit, and the host Inetinfo.exe may cause an access violation.
