I have this annoying problem with my SCO Unix machine.  Every once in
a while when I'm logged in via a Telnet session, the Unix machine just
drops my connection.  In fact it drops all telnet connections from 
my machine if I have multiple connections outstanding (I use PC/TCP from
a PC to telnet in).  When it drops the connections, my session just
freezes until PC/TCP realizes that the other end is not talking anymore
and then lets the connection go.  After dropping my connections, I can't
initiate new connections - it just times out.  A few minutes later I can
initiate new connection and continue as if nothing happened.

Any ideas on what might be causing this?

Thanks,
