aix telnet disconnects
We're having problems getting disconnected from AIX with our telnet sessions.
I can't ping the server when this happens, either. Other serves can be pinged at the same time.
This happens both at unix and within the database. Database locks remain when editing files. unix logins remain after disconnect.
Any ideas?
