The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server, versions 4.0, 4.0 SP1, 4.0 SP2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
After you restore the SNA Server configuration (Com.cfg file) that includes Host
Security Domains, the next time you go into the Host Account Manager (UDConfig),
you do not see any of the Host Security Domains that were originally configured.
CAUSE
=====
If SNA Server is removed and then reinstalled through the Setup process, some
registry parameters for the SnaDatabase and SnaPMP keys are also inadvertently
removed. These parameters are needed when using Host Security Integration.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for SNA Server version
4.0. For additional information, please see the following article in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base:

STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server versions 4.0, 4.0
SP1, and 4.0 SP2. This problem was first corrected in SNA Server version 4.0
Service Pack 3.
