You'll have to write to Xerox to get the specs; I don't have the address right
at hand, but I'll hunt.

It's possible that you're running older XNS on the VAX; a change was made to
the SPP that is effective with the newer 8090 server code:  Right after
initiating the connection, the server sends an EOM, which the client has to
discard.  If you aren't discarding that, it can appear as dropped connections
and inability to connect.
