    Subject:      FTP problem with binary files

    Here at NIU, we're trying to get some PCs running FTP Software's PC/TCP
    v2.04 to communicate with our Amdahl mainframe that's running
    IBM VM TCP/IP v1.2.2.  We are using David Lippke's BTI native-mode
    driver to talk to a BTI ELC.  When we try to FTP between the PC and the
    VM host, the PC hangs after a while.  According to our PC expert,
    VM's TCP/IP is sending two "resets" to the PC side before the PC hangs.

I don't recognize "BTI ELC".  If this is an interface supported via a
Packet Driver, I don't think we've tested the combination, which
might have something to do with the problem.  Which kernel are you
using (ETHDRV)?  Have you sent the LAN trace that indicated the
resets to our support people?  If so, whom have you been talking to?
