Re: Troubleshooting Telnet connections that drop for no apparent reason -- HELP?

I've got one of these rumbling around in Texas.

Possible places to look:

New machines? Typically have lots of software trying to call home for updates or put an ad up for you viewing pleasure. Disable all of these. They can interfere with network connections if they misbehave.

Bad switch? Are the clients on the same switch?

That customer who has some sort of gremlins eating TN5250 connections
(months ago, I made a blind fix so that our terminal emulator would at
least crash instead of locking up when it happened) still has the
gremlins, and given that the blind fix is behaving as expected, and
crashing instead of locking up, I think I can conclude that SOMETHING is
cutting off the connections.

But so far as I'm aware, these are connections within the same LAN.

Anybody have even a clue where to look? I sure don't.
