After resetting the UDP timeouts on both of our NAT boxes to 11 minutes, 
things are much improved. We are still experiencing some problems with 
timeouts though. (Windows claims "The network path cannot be found" when 
trying to access filespace)

What does this line in the Filelog mean?

I had 939 entries like this seemingly from the same client (port number) 
within 2 seconds. I'm also still getting some ProbeUuid failures. I can 
send the context of those along to if it would be helpful.

Thanks again,
Jeff
