Has your fix been > rolled in to RC1? The syncache in 7.0-RC1 has all known bugs fixed, so either you are encountering a new bug or simply having a lot of packet loss. Please try to use tcpdump to capture traffic while these errors are occuring, and include info as to whether you are using any firewalls of any sort anywhere in the connection. Then send that to me and I'll get to it as soon as I can, which may be a week from now. -Mike
