******************* Beginning of Readme ***************************

Product: Microsoft SNA Server for Windows NT v2.0 Update: Patch #33 Status: Confirmed

PKZIP 2.04g format -- uncompress using the "-d" option.

Date: March 5, 1994

Modules updated:

\CLIENTS\WIN3X\WNAP.EXE         02/18/94  06:01p  38400
\CLIENTS\WIN3X\TRACE\WNAP.EXE   02/18/94  06:02p 180505 (debug version)

1988 Only the first invokable TP will start on Windows 3.x

Due to a WIN.INI parsing problem within the SNA Server Windows 3.x client, only the first invokable APPC TP on Windows was being registered with the client software. Any additional invokable TP's were not being registered, and would never be started.

XXXX The 3270 EIS sepdcrec call doesn't return if no network present.

This error is not visible to the user, who only observes an error dialog if no network is present (and is allowed to continue as usual). While the user is not aware of this, a 3270 emulation vendor will observe that their call to sepdcrec doesn't return. This update corrects this so that the sepdcrec call does return when no network is present.

Update Procedure:

- Copy the updated WNAP.EXE over the existing version on the SNA Server

  Windows client directory.
