SNA Server Win3x Banyan Client Displays Incorrect Username

ID: Q139377

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SNA Server, version 2.11
on the following platforms: NT

SYMPTOMS

When you use a username of 17 or more characters in the SNA Server Win3.x Banyan logon dialog box, the dialog box truncates the actual username to 16 characters and then appends the domain name to the end. This causes the client to fail with error 546. The user can correct the username once the dialog box appears.

RESOLUTION

Microsoft has updated the following files to correct this problem:

LMCLI.DLL
IPCLI.DLL
NWCLI.DLL
BVCLI.DLL
WDMOD.DLL
WLOGTR.DLL
WNAP.EXE

The fix increases the username field to 32 characters.
