If the problem is reception, then this is usually the trick you need.
If data transmitted to the VAX is in more segments than the receive 
buffers, then it will basically never succeed. One or another of the 
segments will always be lost.

However, I think that George thought his problem was transmissions, in 
which case this won't help. But he might be wrong, so it's worth a try...
