SNA Server 4.0 was originally released in November 1997. The latest service pack
for SNA Server 4.0 is Service Pack 4, which was released in November 2000.
Microsoft Host Integration Server 2000 was released in August 2000 as the next
release of SNA Server.

Since the release of Windows XP, in October 2001, a decision was made to
concentrate on Host Integration Server 2000 and its compatibility with Windows
XP Professional. Based on this decision, compatibility testing for the SNA
Server 4.0 clients on Windows XP has not occurred. There are no plans to do this
testing in the future.
