---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft SNA Server version 3.0
 - Microsoft SNA Server version 3.0 Service Packs 1, 2, and 3
 - Microsoft SNA Server version 4.0
 - Microsoft SNA Server version 4.0 Service Pack 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

If an SLI application makes multiple SLI_OPEN calls to open an LUA pool,
and registers a BIND routine callback procedure, the SLI application has no
way to correlate the BIND routine with the original SLI_OPEN request, when
the application's BIND routine procedure is called. The lua_correlator
field provided to the SLI_OPEN request is not provided to the application's
BIND routine.

CAUSE
=====

The SNA Server SLI DLL file (Winsli32.dll) was failing to provide the
lua_correlator field to the SLI application's BIND routine while an
SLI_OPEN request is being processed.

RESOLUTION
==========

With this fix applied, SLI now returns the lua_correlator field 
(provided in the SLI_OPEN request) to the application's BIND routine.


STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft SNA Server
3.0 (including SP1-SP3) and SNA Server 4.0 (including SP1, SP2).
