Make sure your workstations and 4.1 server frame types match.  

Also, try using TRACK ON on the server.  When you try to connect from a 
workstations, you should "Get nearest server" from the WS (IN), then "Give 
nearest server" from the server (OUT).  If you see this more than once, then 
the problem may be the NIC on the WS.  If you don't see this at all, focus the 
server.

Hope it helps,
