I have a customer who had a solid  SR configuration using SecurID
authentication.  Since upgrading to 4.1 SP2 they have been having
intermittant problems:

1.  SR 4118 FWZ

Dialup user connecting through ISP, after ~30 sec user sees error-
Error: no answer received from a firewall at site  ###.###.###.###
If this problem persists please contact your system administrator.

Firewall log shows-
action          info
reject          rule 0 reason Client Encryption: SecurID request failed.
reject          rule 0 reason Client Encryption: Failed to generate a shared
key

Ace Server (ver 4.1) shows- 
no errors, no activity at all from the login.

After bouncing the firewall everything authenticates flawlessly.

2.  SR 4157 IKE

Customer logged in via DSL connection & it took ~5 min to authenticate.  No
errors in fw or Ace server log.
Next morning after the firewall was bounced authentication was normal speed.

3.  SR 4005 FWZ
user logs in starts to authenticate

Firewall log shows-
action          Info
authcrypt       reason Client Encryption:  Authenticated by SecurID scheme:
FWZ methods: Encapsulation, DES, DES, MD5
deauthorize     reason Old SecuRemote

User is to the point of dropping back to 4.1SP1

Any suggestions are most welcome.  Any ideas staying on 4.1SP2, dropping
back to SP1, firewall & management are on the same solaris box.
