Hi,
I am having a few problems with a NuvoLinkSC scsi/ethernet box for the Mac.
It has been working reasonably well but has always been prone to hang up.
This seems to have got worse recently.  I have noticed that it seems to work
much better with the non_MacTCP version of NCSA Telnet than with the MacTCP
version.  Using the latter, the box hangs after a short period of time (5-
30 secs, it varies!).  The mac is Ok until you try to quit from telnet. Then
it hangs.  I am using MacTCPv1.0.1 and have tried system 6.0.3, 6.0.4 and
6.0.5 but this doesn't seem to help.  I am using a Mac SE/30.

I am using v1.25 of the Nuvotech driver and I am in then process of obtaining
v 1.26 ( the latest I think).  Has anynone else using one of these boxes had
problems- similar or otherwise.  I would certainly appreciate hearing from you.

I also notice that other MacTCP progs (Eudora, MacPost) hang.  I have run a 
Disinfectant scan (v2.3) and all is OK.

Any help, commments would be appreciated.
