This makes me think that there is a NAT router or other device that is sometimes losing the virtual circuit between the machines. Starting a new connection works but the old connection is sometimes idled out? Usually people run into that problem with idle connections and need to set up a diddle to keep the connection alive. But you are using it so it doesn't quite match but I am mentioning it anyway. You might check your router hardware. You might run a ping in another window and seeing if you are seeing any packet loss. If you found a high packet loss between the systems then that would point to the hardware between them. Bob
