This article was previously published under Q165085
SYMPTOMS
If you install SNA Server 3.0 on a computer whose name contains a number
as the first character, Setup completes successfully. However, when you
first run SNA Server Manager, no SNA Servers are listed in the Manager.
Also, if you close the Manager at that point, you will get a Dr. Watson
error in Snaexp.exe. However, the DrWtsn32.log file will not show a fault
(which would tell you which module actually caused the access violation).
CAUSE
This is a regression for a problem that was corrected in SNA Server 2.11
Service Pack 1.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the hotfix mentioned below.
STATUS
