SYMPTOMS

The Client Configuration Tool (Ntconfig.exe) for the Windows NT SNA Server 3.0 client incorrectly specifies REG_SZ as the data type for the following registry entry:

   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
      \SYSTEM
         \CurrentControlSet
            \Services
               \SnaBase
                  \Parameters
                     \Transports

CAUSE

The Windows NT SNA Client Configuration Tool incorrectly set the data type for the Transports registry value to REG_SZ instead of REG_MULTI_SZ.

RESOLUTION

The Windows NT SNA 3.0 Client Configuration Tool has been updated so that it creates the correct data type for this registry value.

The updated file is:

<Snaroot>\System\Ntconfig.exe

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
