Thanks for your reply.  However I did find that and set the heartbeat to 
'1', thinking that would ensure that a timed out connection wasn't the 
problem.  I then restarted the fd and tried again.  Same problem.  To 
further determine if there was some lag in the data stream, I used 
tcpdump on the actual interfaces of both machines and watched the 
output.  Packets just whizzed by until the connection was broken.  There 
were no pauses whatsoever.

Thanks,

Drew
