RE: Client Access Dropping Out at the desk but the job remains active ?

John --
 I had a similar problem on V4R3 on a M170. 
 We wound up:
*       Installing latest CUME 
*       Installing latest CA service Pack (the shop in question used CA for
Windows V3R2).
*       Installing latest group HIPER CD 
*       THEN IBM let us know there is a TCP/IP group PTF. And a list of V4R3
(and other V4Rx release) specific TCP/IP fixes. Once we made sure we had
every PTF on that list installed: presto -- CA/400 problems went away. BTW:
not all the PTF's on that list were in the CUME. We had to ask for the list
when we called in.
As far as I know, the problem hasn't surfaced again in over 6 months.
Good luck!
