This isn't something easy to reproduce but I think I'll try Fiddler and hope for the best.
We are not on a load balanced environment, and I found out from this user that he stopped using a VM anymore and is still receiving this, although if there are browser plugins or proxy settings those would be tied to his roaming profile rather than the machine. As for the environment, we are using Tomcat running on port 80 directly, the mid tier on one standalone server with one public IP address that everyone uses. The error occurs as far as I know only on the same internal network that everyone else uses.

Using fiddler will let you track the ip of the network device. Another couple of considerations you need check: + Your Mid Tier is separate from the App server? + Which Web Server are you using? + User is reaching your mid tier by using a VPN? + Your Web Server has two IP address (Public and Admin)?

To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG ** Good morning, I have a user receiving ARERR 9350, which states, "Network protocol/data error when performing data operation. Please contact administrator." I've never seen this message appear, and it looks like only one person is getting it. He's logging in to the Mid Tier on ARS 7.5, and the main variable that I can think of that may be a factor is that he is using a virtual machine for his desktop. Our client-side virtual infrastructure is terrible, so I suspect that it may be a lack of bandwidth or some sort of disconnect on that side, but he's not getting a browser error so I would have normally suspected that. The other thing to consider is that we recently started using JSS's SSO authentication plugin, which seems to work great for everyone, but I have to consider it as a possible factor since it is newly implemented. Does anyone have any idea what could generate this message? We can't reproduce it, it just randomly happens. Also, BMC's documentation is pretty terrible here. It just states, "An internal error occurred because parameters passed to the back channel were incorrect." That is pretty much gibberish as far as I can tell.
