Using smit to configure TCP/IP over a serial optical link I noticed
that I have to do it on both machines at almost the same time
(10-20 seconds of each other).  Is it the way it is or should be?

Also, if I power down and up both machines at almost the same time
the TCP/IP will be up.  If I just "reboot" both machines at almost
the same time, the TCP/IP won't be up.  Why?

Thanks a lot for any info,
