Sorry, I don't know why my first note's content couldn't get in. I
copied it as follows.
Hi,
Since I don't know much about Pathwork, hope that someone can help me
out on this problem.
o Server
VAX 7000-760 running VMS 6.1, PathWORKS for VMS 4.2 ECO06 using TCP
transport
o Client
Any PC in our site running PathWORKS 5 using TCP transport
Symptom
=======
In the first few times a PC client access the PathWORKS file server
after bootup, if the SMB request is an exclusive SMB write, the
client does not wait for the response from the server and proceed
with another SMB request (in our case a SMB read request). The
server, fed with these 2 nearly overlapping requests, incorrectly
interrupts the underlying TCP connection and aborting the whole SMB
session.
In another parallel test, an Windows NT 4.0 server was used in
place of the VMS PathWORKS server. The PathWORKS client behaved
identically but the Windows NT server was able to cater the requests
without problem.
Many thanks in advance,
regards,
ck

| 7397.2 | v5.x pw client is retired;use v6.x pw client | JAMIN::TELESETSKY | Wed May 21 1997 19:24 | 6 | |
Sorry, the PW Client V5.x is no longer supported. It has been retired.
Please upgrade your Pathworks Client to v6.* with ECO kit patches and
let us know if the problem still appears.

| 7397.3 | Is it a V4.2 PW server problem? | HGOV08::CHIKAICHEUNG | Wed May 21 1997 22:10 | 7 | |
But is it a server's problem rather than a client's problem? In the
test, clients are the same but pathwork server and NT server behave
differently. So upgrading PW client can we solve the problem?
thanks & regards,

| 7397.4 | Totally unsupported config... | VMSNET::P_NUNEZ | Thu May 22 1997 10:05 | 6 | |
Well, v4 server also is no longer supported; so if it's broke (and
you've tried v4.2 eco9), looks like it's time to plan the migration to
v5 server...
