Hi,
I have the following problem with a network:
I am running a winNT server on this network, and also I am using rs232
comunication with a device. what happends is that sometimes, after
comunicating via the com port, one of the stations looses the server, and
cannot reconnect to the server again (I can see the server from the
workstation, but I cannot perform a "DIR" operation on the remote disk).
This can only be fixed if i boot the server. The workstations are DOS
machines.
The problem is - it does not happen every time, it happeneds at different
times, on different workstations. The only common thing to all the times is,
that is happened after a transaction on the com port to the remote device.
On the server I am using MSComm control to handle the comunication.

I do not have an idea of what is causing this, and I am desparate. Please
help me.
Thanks a lot

p.s.
I would appreciate a response to me directly since I am posting this in
several newsgroups and I might not be able to keep track of all of them.

Thanks again.
