Does anyone have any advice about how to set up an ADSM client (eg, Win95)
to work reliably over long, slow TCP/IP connections?

I'm trying to back up a PC to a remote ADSM server through a 28.8 Kbps PPP
connection to an ISP not local to the ADSM server. ADSM services seem very
susceptible to network delays and conjestion; when the going gets rough, we
eventually start seeing "TCP Connection Failure" error pop-up boxes while
doing backups.

Are there settings in the dsm.opt file that will make ADSM more tolerant of
network delays? Is anyone else supporting remote users through
slower-than-LAN connections?

Thanks,
Nick
