Did quite a bit of looking before posting my question, but with a little
more found an October thread in the support newsgroup, "Test fix for
peer failure under SMP" Apparently, Peer doesn't work with SMP because,
until eCS Pro, the only place SMP was used was for real LANs. The
newslist gave a link to a testcase file which has apparently been
removed now. But I've downloaded the zip files that are there. Maybe
one will be an update. At least the cause of the problem has probably
been identified. The offending file is netwksta.200, which is part of
the installable netbios network file system?
