SNA Server 3.0 Snadmod.dll Returns SEC_LOGON_FAILED_BADLY to Win

• Microsoft SNA Client for Windows 95, versions 3.0, 3.0 SP1
• Microsoft SNA Server, versions 3.0, 3.0 SP1

SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to connect to SNA Server 3.0 with SNA Client for Windows 95, the client may fail to connect and you receive the following error message:

ERROR: No SNA Servers found in <Subdomain name>

CAUSE

The SNA Server Snadmod.dll returns a SEC_LOGON_FAILED_BADLY rather than SEC_LOGON_FAILED_RETRY. The SEC_LOGON_FAILED_BADLY causes the Windows 95 client to not retry the sponsor connection and to interpret the failure as an inability to contact an SNA server.

RESOLUTION

A change has been made to the SNA Server Snadmod.dll file to correctly send the SEC_LOGON_FAILED_RETRY.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server 3.0 and 3.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1). This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack.
