Thanks.  I tried applying the TCPIP patch alone, then service pack 6.

Subject:  Re: TCP/IP 'twixt NetWare 4.11 and AIX ADSM server

60 and 32 are generic return codes from the NetWare implementation
of the BSD socket send function.

From the Novell NetWare SDK NLM errno.h:

#define ETIMEDOUT        60 /* connection timed out     */
#define EPIPE            32 /* broken pipe         */

Have you applied the Novell recommended patches for 4.11? I believe there
may be a TCPIP patch.

Dear TJ,

Both the AIX ADSM server and the NetWare client are on the FDDI ring--no
routers.  In fact, the NetWare clients that are on ethernet and have to
traverse a switch have no problem.

I am still wondering what the ADSM error messages mean.

Gerry,

If you can not ping during your session lost, that sound like a network
problem and not a ADSM problem. Recommend to track down your network
connections and check if you have any routers between the client and the
server is yes look to the routers log file.
