2814.0. "What is rnaapp.exe?" by SMURF::TOMG () Mon Feb 24 1997 11:22

Does anyone know what rnaapp.exe is?

Yesterday, one of our home systems wasn't responding. I pressed
control-alt-del and it showed this program as "not responding". I killed
this task and the system was ok.

I did some further investigation and it seems that this program is
related to dial-up networking and seems to come into play only after I
have disconnected from a dial-up networking connection. That is, it isn't
present after a reboot and it isn't present while a dial-up networking
connection is active, but only appears after disconnecting. 

The only other details are that the problem occurred just this one time
and may have been several hours after the last networking connection. The
computer was also likely idle for several hours as well.

2814.1Rnaapp is a pain.. PTOSS1::MATSCHERZTue Feb 25 1997 12:5322
    I've had real problems with that thing.  I noticed mine were related to
    after a install of internet explorer v 3.0 .  The os kept crashing with
    rnaapp errors and I even went as far as getting First Aid for windows
    to correct the crashes.  (that really didn't help and led to a whole
    bunch of other problems ;(   )  I eventually deleted all references to
    Internet explorer (it's a piece of crappy software IMHO ) .  Then I
    downloaded (for at least the 5th time) The new version of IE (v 3.01) . 
    After reloading a couple of times (more stupid problems) I was finally
    able to get the whole freaking thing to work.  What a pain.  I haven't
    been getting any more errors so I can assume that my problems were
    related to that IE 3.0 .  Also,  I reloaded the service pack 1 and all
    the others krn update ,  isdn update ,  etc... (4 or 5 others too) . 
    I've since installed the win95 os on some other pc's and found that by
    doing all the updates and a full new install that everything works
    pretty good.  I've got some friends that are having trouble as well and
    will have to spend some time doing a reconfig of those also.

    fwiw: On my system, RNAAP is active whenever I have a DUN/PPP
    connection up and running. Never have any problems attributable to it
    either...
