SYMPTOMS
When an SLI_Open API call is issued, and the SLI application has defined format 1 Initself, the WinSLI library returns the following error message in an RUI trace:
CAUSE
The SNA Server 2.0, 2.1 and 2.11 SLI interface was originally written to support only Format 0 Initself messages. However, it has been expanded in SNA Server 2.11 to support Format 1 as well.
Page 5-22 of the IBM SNA Formats Guide defines a format 1 Initself to be identified as 810681 (bytes 0-2), while the format 0 Initself to be identified as 010681.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft has updated the files, WINSLI.DLL, for 16-bit clients, and WINSLI32.DLL for 32-bit clients, to correct this problem.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server for Windows NT. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server for Windows NT, 2.11 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
