The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server, version 3.0, on platform(s):
- the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
If SNA Server Manager shows the first SNA Server in the subdomain as Offline,
Manager will display the following error when it attempts to create a new host
security domain:
Cannot contact Windows NT Primary Domain Controller
CAUSE
=====
The SNA Server Manager Host Security extension (Hostsec.dll) was attempting to
use the first SNA Server in the configuration to locate the Windows NT primary
domain controller.
RESOLUTION
==========
An update to SNA Server 3.0 is available to correct this problem. The host
security extension now tries all SNA Servers in the configuration, not just the
first server.
The updated module is \<snaroot>\System\Hostsec.dll.
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.
