I am having a problem with remote sites getting timeout messages. Let me try and explain, my skills and knowledge are somewhat limited:

From a remote site, a Workstation connects to our Frame, routed to our site using TCP/IP, converted to NetBIOS at the gateway and the gateway calls the server it has been configured for. From time to time, the server displays a "recieved failed," while almost instantly displaying a "timeout, closing connection and retrying" message on the remote site workstation. During this time, some of the data that was being transmitted was dropped. What I can't figure out, is where the connection drop is occuring.

Any ideas?
