SYMPTOMS
========
If you use a 16-bit application running on the computer running SNA Server to
open a file on a drive that was created by the SNA Server 3.0 Shared Folders
Gateway (SFGW), you may receive the following error message:
Cannot access <filename>.
CAUSE
=====
The application is trying to access a file object that is still in the SFGW file
object cache. In this situation, the application was allowed to try to open the
file object as a directory. However, because the file object points to a file,
this attempt fails.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, obtain the hotfix mentioned below. As a workaround, you
can either try a 32-bit version of the application, or do not run the
application on the computer running SNA Server.
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.
