Re: (ASCEND) 6.1.0 Max4k problem


 Marc,

This is a known problem, that myself I have experienced many times, and
Engineering @ ascend is also aware of it, It's due to a lack of resources
(memory) the box can't allocate enough memory to bring that menu up for
you telnet connection so it just kills the TCP connect.

Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
