SYMPTOMS
========

The WinRUI 16-bit thunking DLL provided with Service Pack 1 changes the
lua_verb_length in an application-provided LUA RUI_BID verb to an incorrect
value. As a result, the verb fails with primary return code = PARAMETER_CHECK,
secondary = VERB_LENGTH_INVALID.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SNA Server 2.0, 2.1,
2.11, and 2.11.sp1. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft SNA
Server 2.11 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the service pack,
