SCO box loosing network connection
Hello,
We have a SCO box running OpenServer 5.0.5. This has our business software on it (15 users connecting via terminal emulator (ansio lite)) which has been running for about 12-15yrs strong!
Within the past 6-8 months, at random times of the day, we've been loosing connection to this box. Sometimes once a week, sometimes several times a day! We'd have to reboot the UNIX box and we can continue as usual.
Any ideas as to what could be causing this box to go down?
I don't think it's the network card because I have built an identical box and genned the software onto it and still have the same issues.
Thanks.
Ralph C.

GENBOX(1) General Commands Manual GENBOX(1)
NAME
genrbox - generate a RADIANCE description of a box
SYNOPSIS
genrbox mat name xsiz ysiz zsiz [ -i ][ -r rad | -b bev ]
DESCRIPTION
Genbox produces a RADIANCE scene description of a parallelepiped with one corner at the origin and the opposite corner at (xsiz, ysiz,
zsiz). The sides of the box will be parallel to the three coordinate planes. The surfaces that make up the box will be modified by mat
and their identifiers will begin with name. The -i option can be used to produce a box with inward directed surface normals. The -r
option can be used to specify the radius for rounded edges. The -b option can be used to specify the indentation for beveled edges.
EXAMPLE
To produce a rectangular box made of wood with beveled edges:
genrbox wood box1 5 8 3 -b .5 > box1
AUTHOR
Greg Ward
BUGS
Because spheres and cylinders are used to construct boxes with rounded edges, a transparent box of this type appears quite messy.
