File server quits during long transfers


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.
