CentoOS 6 and Windows 7 clients losing XP server connection
Update: Upgraded to 1.3.7 (not sure why I was running 1.3.6) and still having the same problem with the Linux client as well as a Windows 7 client. I read that someone was having a problem with their wireless router and my network guy said I should use a switch instead, instead which I changed this morning, but it has had no effect on the problem.
I am running 1.3.6 from a 32-bit Windows XP as a server and 1.3.6 from a 32-bit Centos 6 client. My client continuously loses the connection with 'server is dead' message. The client will then reconnect, get the server is dead message, and on and on. Below are the logs showing it connect and then the connect-disconnect cycle. Even though the logs show that the client isn't able to reconnect, moving the mouse back to the client works fine until the 'server is dead' message which happens every 7-25 seconds.
