Release 2.1 contains a number of bugs -- enough to make it almost
unuseable. About the only solution is to upgrade to WIN/TCP 3.0.

You also need to do some heavy tuning of the kernel parameters.
We run with the following parameters:

	master.d/tcp	NTCP=64
	master.d/ucp	NUDP=128
	
You also need to crank up some of the streams stuff (TIMOD & TIRDWR)
but I don't have the specific values handy.

Pity.
