Dear experts!

Some of the clients in my cell sometimes lose the connection to one  
of the fileservers. This usually happens while processing large  
(1.5GB) data files which reside on that server. The symptom is that  
'fs checks' says no connection and ethereal shows that while RX  
packets are sent to the server, the server always answers with RX  
abort datagrams. The only immediate fix I have found is to stop/ 
restart the openafs-client (Debian sarge, 1.3.81, on clients and  
servers). What can I do to further debug the cause of this? The  
problem is that this phenomenon eats batch jobs by the hundreds.

Thanks,
                     Roland
