Greetings;

I am running ver 8.0(9) on an AGS. I currently have
IP and DECNET routing enabled.  Last Monday morning,
I enabled Novell routing. Servers showed up, everything
looked fine. Got a call today from a person who had been
doing RDUMPs across the net. Seems they had stopped working
about...Monday morning, of course! :-)  
 
Anyhow, after some debugging, we determined that blocks of size 2
went thru, but the default block size of 20 got stuck. I disabled
Novell and reloaded my config. The cisco told me that Novell was 
not enabled, but the procs were still running. So, I hit the
big red switch.  

Tried another RDUMP, and big blocks (20) worked just fine.

Has anyone got any ideas why Novell routing would cause 
RDUMP to get eaten while using big blocks?  I have the whole thing
on disk, BTW. (Used my Lanalyzer to scarf packets.

Thanks,
