SYMPTOMS
========
The SNA Server service (Snaservr.exe) may fail unexpectedly with an access
violation in routine s1pxsnd(). This specific failure can occur when using LU6.2
persistent verification with SNA Server. When this problem occurs, a Dr. Watson
log similar to the following may be generated:
Application exception occurred:
App: exe\snaservr.dbg (pid=process id)
When: date time
Exception number: c0000005 (access violation)

NOTE: The following Knowledge Base articles refer to similar failure symptoms,
though these problems have been fixed in SNA Server 4.0 Service Pack 2. While
the failure is similar, the cause of this issue is specific to the use of
persistent verification.

(fixed in SNA Server 4.0 SP1)
Q195998 SNA Server Fails With Access Violation in Routine s1pxsnd
(fixed in SNA Server 4.0 SP2)
CAUSE
=====
To support persistent verification, the SNA Server service may be required to
remove the password vector from the FMH-5 Attach request received from the SNA
Server APPC DLL. In some cases, SNA Server failed to decrement the internal
message size of the element, resulting in an access violation when transmitting
the message to the SNA Server link service.
