I am not sure who's fault this is but i am going to smack them when
i find out. I have to FORCE the drives to mount via Appleshare so
that i can read them this century. When i did a Tcpdump on the line
i found that IP mounted drives would talk IP for about 10 sec and then
stop. Jabber some Appletalk and then hang for about a min or two. Then
it would repeat....
i have no clue how to fix it so i can only hope someone who knows the
code can help..
