Dear Newsgroup,

I am experience TCP/IP connection being broken (around once a day) when
the connection is in an idle state (i.e. no data is going through).
The connection is made between a Sun 386i and a Spider system terminal
server through 5 DEC LAN Bridges. I checked the ethernet for errors and
none of the interfaces registered any errors. I would be most grateful
if anyone has any ideas or experience on this one.

Many thanks.
