Hello,
    We are receiving ANS1017E (-50) messages in every client log that we
look at.  They seem to be very random in their timing.  Our real problem
involves our DB (db2, SYBASE) backups which are started by an external
scheduler triggering a client script that initialates the backup.  These
backups fail to start and become a backup failure.  The script recognizes
the failure and reports back to our operators immediately.  After retrying
the job that initiates the script the job works.  WHat can be causing this?
Here is a sample of the problem.
Matt
