This is the problem that first motivated my posting.  (I shouldn't have assumed
that others would know the symptoms I saw, and should have spelt them out).
The problems began for me last week and have gone this week -- no dropping of
the telnet session over 12-14 hours, whereas last week I'd have one drop out
per 5-10 minutes.
