| ...but apparently I can enter notes and replies. I just can't get
anywhere - not iwth 'next unseen', not with explicit note numbers,
things just hang for minutes, then 'network partner exited'. This
network partner is alsoe getting excited...

I read your question and then typed in some numbers at random, and
everything was fine.
Then I did a SET SEEN/BEFORE=TODAY and the system hung when I tried
a NEXT UNSEEN ... but might have been coincidental because I did a
CTRL Y and got back in and did the same thing, and everything was
fine.
So, basically, I think it's just you. 8^)

| After some more research, others in Europe confirm access problems to US
notesfiles (see e.g. HUMANE::DIGITAL).
About a third or maybe half of the conferences seem to have access problems
via DECnet (but TCP/IP access seems ok - I'm writing this with Netnotes
on my PC).
The symptoms I get is either a 'network partnet exited' even before the
first unseen note is shown, or the same message when trying to go anywhere
after the first unseen has been shown. If you get in, entering new
notes/replies seems to be no problem - you just can't read them... ;-)
It can't have anything to do with notebook corruption or some such - the
problem is the same with or without a notebook, from different DECnet
nodes.

There is a DECnet problem at the moment in Easynet, which might be a
reason for this. Anyway, you may want to log a call through your
calldesk.

5737.6 | PPP links across Atlantic at fault | MARVIN::RIGBY | No such thing as an alpha beta | Tue Feb 25 1997 14:34 | 9 |
| The problem was the PPP links over the Atlantic which, unfortunatly, had decided
that the Maximum SDU to be transmitted from the US was a mere 578 bytes. IP and
originated OSI were OK because the routers just fragmented the packets but
PhaseIV (and PhaseIV translated to OSI) can't be fragmented and the packets were
dropped. As a result any FULL phaseIV packet got dropped every time and NSP
would always drop the connection, anything less than completely full squeezed
under the 578 boundary and arrived in Europe. (More US export restrictions !-)
The links have been fixed and service appears to have been restored.
