How many digis do you have ?  Is it all of them that are acting up ?  If
you only have one, then the possibility of a bad digi is not out of the
question.  Is something attached to the network recently that has the
same ip as the digi ?  Unplug the digi and then ping it by ip.  

I have always found digi support to be pretty decent.  Is SP1 the last
'thing' that was installed on the server ?  If so, maybe there is a
compatibility issue.  I would undo it (if that's possible and if you
don't really need it for anything else).

If the digi is bad, you can find them on ebay now for very cheap.  

It really doesn't sound like a Universe problem.

Subject: [U2] Off-topic? Problems with DigiPortServer -> Win2003 server
SP1 -> Universe


We are baffled by a problem that just came up at a customer site. They
are running Universe on Win2003 server with SP1. Have had
DigiPortServer's in place there seems like forever. The digi's where
attached to an NT4 server which we decomissioned and went to new server
running Win2003. Everything was just fine with all the dumb terminals
for the first six or more months after migrating to Win2003 server with
Universe 10.something.

Now, 'ports', dumb terminals attached to digi seem to 'hang' at random -
screen freezes - any keystrokes have no effect - Ctrl-Q doesn't free
them up (flow control is xon/xoff). But, you can send a message to any
of these hung serial ports via Universe MESSAGE command and it will
appear on the hung terminal.

Anyone have any ideas about how to troubleshoot this problem?

universe support said it isn't a universe problem

digi support has been not much help. they suggested removing sp1 from
the win2003 server, although they have no other reported problems with
win2003 sp1 and their gear.

Any ideas?
