SYMPTOMS

When reviewing the Application Log in the Event Viewer, multiple Event Id 54's coming from source SNA Host Security may be present. When viewing this event, the description information will be missing.

CAUSE

By default, the Host Security Integration Service is not installed during setup, therefore, the SNA Host Security key is not created. The registry path for this location is listed below:

   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet
      \Services\EventLog\Application\

RESOLUTION

A change was made to SNA Server setup so that the Host Security Event Log registry entries are now always installed during the server installation.

To resolve this problem, obtain the hotfix mentioned below.

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):
