I've got problems using Xircom Network Adapter together with Sun's PC-NFS.

I've mounted several diskdrives on my Sun 4/390 from my PC. 
The problem is - that there is problems with some files, that won't be copied
out on af mounted drive from the C: or A: drive. 
It seems that it have some thing to do with the length of the file. Xircom 
Network Adapter is copying files in blocks of 8K. It's in the last block it goes
wrong. 
And if you make a file on 1291 bytes, I garantie it goes wrong every time you
try to copy it.

I've told my problem to the dealer, and they promissed they will overbring my 
problem to Xircon Inc.

But it seems that they won't prioritize high enough.

Anyone who have the same problem as me!? I'll like to hear from you.
