Copying Files with Artisoft Alone and SMARTDrive 4.0 (82328)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 3.1
- Microsoft Windows 3.11
This article was previously published under Q82328 SYMPTOMS
Your computer stops (locks up or hangs) when you run Artisoft's Alone
program and Microsoft Windows with SMARTDrive loaded, and you try to copy
files between workstations and servers.
Several copy operations may be successful, but eventually a copy operation
causes the computer to hang.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because of the way Alone uses internal stacks. Alone
does not monitor its use of stacks and eventually fills them up completely.
RESOLUTION
Don't run the Alone program. Alone is not required for full functionality
on Lantastic networks.
Disabling SMARTDrive write-behind caching on shared drives also corrects
this problem.
MORE INFORMATION

when you plan to use the machine as both a server and a workstation.

let's you check the activity on the machine.
