SYMPTOMS
Using the Linkutil.exe utility to display link service properties may show
incorrect properties.
CAUSE
The search for link service always finds the last link service type, rather
than stopping when the link service is found.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server versions 2.11
SP2, 3.0, 3.0 SP1, 3.0 SP2, 3.0 SP3, 4.0, and 4.0 SP1. We are researching
this problem in SNA Server versions 2.X and 3.0 and will post more information
here in the Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 4.0 U.S.
Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the
following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
WORKAROUND
If possible, view the properties of a link service in SNA Server Manager.
