Subject: File server quits during long transfers

I have a user who is running OS 8.6 on a G4.  He's connecting 
to a machine running Red Hat Linux 6.0 and Netatalk version 
1.4b2+asun2.1.1 .

	When he is doing large file transfers (as in 2000 or so 
files), the computer occasionally closes down the connection to the 
netatalk server.

	Does anyone have a fix or a reason for this?  Maybe 
increasing a buffer size somewhere and restarting?

	I do recall a few weeks ago, a machine that does backups 
through the netatalk server occasionally went down in the middle of a 
long backup.

	Ryan
