How to Use SNA Admin to Focus On a Remote Domain

When you run SNA Admin, you can set the focus on a remote domain by choosing the Select Domain option from the File menu. In the Select Domain dialog box you can type either a remote domain name or a remote computer name:

• If the remote SNA Server is in a Windows NT domain or a SNA Server subdomain (for SNA Server 2.11 or later), enter the domain (or SNA subdomain) name following the Domain prompt:

  Domain: <remote_domain_name> (for example: Domain: REMOTEDOMAIN)

  -or-
• If you want to focus on a specific remote computer, type the Windows NT computer name of the remote SNA Server following the Domain prompt:

  Domain: \\<computer_name> (for example: Domain: \\REMOTESERVER)

How to Use SNA Manager to Focus On a Remote Domain

When you run SNA Manager, you can set the focus on a remote domain by choosing the Open Subdomain option from the File menu. In the Open Subdomain dialog box you can type either a remote subdomain name or a remote computer name:

• Enter the SNA subdomain name at the Subdomain prompt:

  Subdomain: <remote_subdomain_name> (for example: Subdomain: REMOTEDOMAIN)

  -or-
• If you want to focus on a specific remote computer, type the Windows NT computer name of the remote SNA Server following the Subdomain prompt:

  Subdomain: \\<computer_name> (for example: Subdomain: \\REMOTESERVER)

NOTE: If you want to connect via TCP/IP sockets to a server in a remote domain, you must enter the Windows NT computer name at the Domain or Subdomain prompt, since there is no reliable way to dynamically locate remote SNA Servers using TCP/IP sockets. In addition, the TCP/IP address for the remote SNA Server can be used instead of the computer name (for example: Domain: \\<TCP/IP Address>)
