[comp.sys.xerox] filing not responding ??

eho@word.Princeton.EDU (Eric Ho) (08/08/89)

Hi,

Does anyone out there encountered frequent "xxx filing not responding"
messaages, where xxx is the name of a 8000 fileserver, when loading from or
compiling files to the fileserver ?  We got these messages whenever we're
loading and/or compiling large files between the fileserver and our 1108's
(all running Koto).  The fileserver isn't dead and the loading/compiling
operations often succeed even though there're quite a few of these messages
poped up on the prompt window.

Does anyone got similiar experiences ?  My guess is that it depends on what is
being loaded or compiled and that there is some weird interactions between the
loader/compiler with XNS that is causing these error messages (maybe the
loader/compiler didn't do enough handshaking or something).

Any pointers will be much appreciated.
