I have seen this before.. kind of sporadically and with no real pattern.
This is with 3.1.0.6 of the NT Client and with an AIX ADSM Server at
3.1.2.20.

Stopping and restarting the ADSM Service always solves the problem. However
the problem has been
more intermittent in our environment rather than occuring on a daily basis.

Anyone else seen this occur?
