Hi Folks,

We've got a DecStation 5000/150 with Pathworks and Pacershare installed.
Our problem show itself on two levels:
1.      From Macs using Macterminal and LAT-Connection we suddenly get a broken
        connection in the middle of a terminal session. It is truly
intermittant
        and occurs in command mode, during VI and from inside Applications.
        After a minute or two we get the message "waiting for LAT-Connection"
        and eventually MacTerminal times out. Close Macterminal and try to open
        it again brings the same error.

        Reboot Mac (IIsi, PowerMac and Performa) and the connection is
        back again with out any complaints untill it diasappears again.

2.      The Lat connection seems to become slower and slower just before the
        final "waiting for LAT-Connection" arrives.

We've had the current configuration for a little less than a year and it
seemed quite stable until now.

Cheers, Tom
