We have bought and installed FM Server 5, and the same random "lost contact with host" message happens about twice a day on the average. The wiring contractor has checked the wiring carefully and it is fine. I have set the RAM for FM Server to 160MB (hosting 7 files and 11 users) and the server is a dedicated FM server. Have also checked Energy Saver (never sleep), and have turned off cache flushing interval (idle time flush), and turned off logging. Running out of ideas...

Anatoli, Where would I check the disconnect value??

This is a new 2001 DV G4/633, and I do not think installing 9.0.4 on it is an option. Any other ideas?? Thanx in advance.

In a 10/100BaseT in-house Ethernet network, we have 6 FM 5.0.3 files being hosted on a G4/733 acting as the server, OS 9.1, using TCP/IP as the FM protocol for connectivity with the 2 PC's on the network. There are usually 8 to 11 connected users at any given time, and for the most part, everything works fine; however about twice a day, the client Macs/PCs lose contact with the server files. The server itself is running fine (not crashed), but if I quit FM on any client machine and relaunch, when I press the Hosts button, no files show up. The only solution seems to be to quit the files on the server, relaunch, and have the clients launch and connect again, and sometimes we have to reboot all. Would FM 5 Server be a possible solution to this annoying problem? Because it is a random problem and not repeatable at will, it is very hard to troubleshoot. The G4 hosting is brand new and it appears stable in all other regards. Anybody seen this behavior before? Any troubleshooting suggestions? HELP!
