SYMPTOMS
The APPC Session Viewer tool in Microsoft SNA Server may not correctly read the registry in all cases. This can cause some properties to be displayed as an error in the status window of the tool.



CAUSE
The APPC Session Viewer tool fails to reset an internal counter, which causes the registry to be read incorrectly.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server versions 3.0, 3.0 SP1, 3.0 SP2, and 4.0.

This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):

S E R V P A C K

A supported fix for SNA Server version 4.0 is now available, but has not been fully regression-tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Service Pack that contains this fix.
