- I am not an expert so this is not a technical answer. I had the same problem
- running tn3270 under DesqView against TCP/IP 1.x, but it occurred after
- a short period of time while the keyboard was *idle*. Very annoying.
-
- After I installed the PXTMUX package the problem went away.
- This never happened with my non-VM connections, eg VAX, RS6000. Can someone
- give the definitive explaination on this?
