This article was previously published under Q140423 SYMPTOMS
When you use SNA Server client and IBM CA/400 (V3R1), you are prompted to
enter a User ID and password. If your user ID has nine or less characters,
you are able to log on. If your user ID has ten characters, the following
error appears:
SNA Server EHNAPPC Security
7003 Cannot assign a network drive
If you choose OK, the user ID and password prompt appears again. This time
only the first nine characters of the user ID appear in the User ID box.
CAUSE
The SNA Server Win 3.x EHNAPPC interface does not properly
handle AS/400 signon if the AS/400 userid is ten characters in
length. The tenth character is truncated.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft has updated the following files to correct this problem (on
Windows 3.1x clients):
<winroot>\SYSTEM\EHNAPPC.DLL
<winroot>\SYSTEM\EHNRTRW.DLL
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server for Windows NT.
This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server for Windows NT, 2.11
U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on
