We are having a problem with our workstations (SE dual HFHD) and our file serve
r (SE 2/40 DSDD) over appletalk (09 workstations connnected via phoneNet and a
Star controller, and 01 Laserwriter NT same).  We are running system 6.03 and h
ave normal system fonts and das in addition to (DeskDraw & BigCaps), Broadcast,
menuclock, responder, and registerName. We have users boot with a system floppy
and an application disk (word 4.0, kermit) and have the project fileserver moun
t at boot up (registered users only).

The PROBLEM is whenever a user resizes a floppy window or chooses an apple menu
item or makes another floppy window active the cursor turns into a watch and
the appleshare "arrows" appear for 5-10 seconds.  Why would "local" activity
effect the fileserver ?  Does anybody have any clues ?  Most users are forced
to unmount the server to get any work done...

Any help would be appreciated...
