DOCUMENT:Q180574 02-APR-2000 [sna] TITLE :Client Fails if WNAP Started Using /User: and /Pwd: Options PRODUCT :Microsoft SNA Server PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.0 SP1,3.0 SP2 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbnetwork ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft SNA Server, versions 3.0 SP1, 3.0 SP2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== A Windows 3.x SNA Server client fails to get an application session if you start Wnap.exe with /User: /Pwd: specified on the command line. When this occurs while you are using the 3270 Applet included with SNA Server, the following message is displayed on the 3270 Applet status bar: No SNA Server Found in Domain. CAUSE ===== The Windows 3.x client is not storing the password specified in the /Pwd: command line parameter for use after WNAP initializes. Because the password is not available when the application session starts, the user account cannot be validated by SNA Server. This prevents the application session from opening. WORKAROUND ========== To work around this problem: - Start Wnap.exe without using the /User and /Pwd: options. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server versions 3.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and 3.0 SP2. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack.
