SUMMARY

SNA Server and Host Integration Server 2000 clients display pop- up error dialog boxes when SnaBase detects various errors. For example, if SnaBase cannot open a sponsor connection to a Host Integration Server 2000 server, the following pop-up error dialog box appears:

Host Integration Server - ERROR # 1003

SnaBase could not open a sponsor connection to server server name

These SnaBase error dialog boxes cannot be suppressed on SNA Server and Host Integration Server 2000 clients. To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Host Integration Server 2000.
