I could adjust the setting however it does not recommend it. What is the

Probably will fix it. You may want to try setting DupInterval to be something
smaller than the default of 60, say 20 or 30.
There are no real negative implications in most network/NAS combinations.

Changing the DupInterval wont make it do that.

these errors?
Hmmm, that indicates that whats happening above is merely the symptom, not the
cause. Its possible that your Radiator is not processing requests as fast as
your NAS expects.
I would suggest 2 possibilities:
1. Chack whther the problem is slow responses from radiator. You should be able
to do more than 5 per second on _any_ platform and much more on fast machines.
If you are not acheiving that, we need to look at your configuration. Asre you
using SQL? Are the indexes in your SQL tables OK? etc. Looking at the log file
at trace level 4 wil help you work this out.
2. Your NAS retransmission timeout is too short given the circumstances in the
previous paragraph. You might try changing it from 5 (the usual default) to say
10 or 20? Actually, looking at your logfile, it looks like your retrans timeout
is about 3 secs.
Hope that helps.
Cheers.
