Hi everyone,

I have had a strange occurrence and wondered if any 
of you Novell people could help here...

Our environment is as follows:
OS/2 ADSM backup server - Latest PTF level 
for OS/2 ADSM server - Fixpak27 loaded.
Novell adsm client - Latest Novell client, but here
is where I'm wondering - the server is SFT111...
What happens is schedules/backups run fine - 
Did a full backup last night - went through no problem.
Tried a restore of a file today and the process starts 
up to where it would ask the password, but then hangs.
Can not unload the dsmc - If we do that the console also 
starts to hang and we end up having to re-boot the server.
The OS/2 server does not even show this session starting.
Has anyone seen this - or should we start looking at running
traces?

Here is what comes out on the 2nd server's console:
