In the last case no good reason for the disconnection was given. Given the extensive use of the LDM, it seems unlikely that these disconnections are due to it, rather, it seems likely that they are due to either the network or the networking layers of the hosts in question. You *might* be able to verify this by switching to a previous version of the LDM -- although the autoshifting feature in 6.4 might confuse the issue. Incidentally, the timestamps on the two sets of log messages don't correlate. Do you have a network administrator to whom you can take this problem? > I haven't seen these types of errors before. > > Thanks, > Robert Mullenax > NMSU/CSBF Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: AET-991057 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: On Hold
