I?ve made a number of bug fixes to the Linux DECnet dnlogin program. These were found
trying to login to TOPS-10 but it?s quite possible that they could be generated by logging
in to other operating systems depending on the usage (e.g. timing out read requests was
totally broken and generated a message that TOPS-10 was not expecting). I have no idea if
this is related to the problem you are seeing but it may be worth a try. My version of the
code is available on Erik Olofsen?s site (http://rullf2.xs4all.nl/decnet/) as version 2.68
(this version also includes a number of fixes to the DAP utilities).

Wow, thanks - I'll merge this for sure, but, unfortunately, the problem is probably in
the part of the code from the kernel part ... it continues sending packets to a node that
has disappeared - Restarting the FNP fixes the issue, but I've yet have it happen when
I'm in a position to analyze it and make a dump, and I haven't been able to
trigger it myself yet.
I'm using the utilities based on release 2.62 currently.
