FACE="Monospace,Courier">In addition to my regular duties, I teach a class part 
time at the local<BR>community college. &nbsp;They recently started 
experiencing a very unusual<BR>problem. &nbsp; They are using a model 170 on 
V4R4. &nbsp;This box is used only for<BR>student use.<BR>The problem is that 
the system drops connections to the outside world, with<BR>no log as to what 
has happened. &nbsp; Last night I got on the system at 5 and<BR>it was OK. I 
tried again at 6 and could not connect. &nbsp;The console (PC)<BR>could not 
even access the system. &nbsp;We IPL'd and the system came up. 
&nbsp;I<BR>looked at the history log and there were only 3 entries, all 
normal<BR>activity. &nbsp;I also checked the display on the box while we 
couldn't connect<BR>and it read a normal '01 &nbsp;B &nbsp;N'. &nbsp; &nbsp;I 
also looked at SST and problem log<BR>and found nothing in those areas.<BR>This 
started about 2 weeks ago and the system is being IPL'd at least 3<BR>times a 
day to allow academic instruction to go on.<BR>Nobody seems to know what type 
of a maintenance program they do/don't have<BR>so I hate to call IBM if we can 
solve this with out there assistance.<BR></FONT><BR><FONT
