Because the logic failed, it was reset though :-)

Seriously what release are you running on these VAXen? Things that cause 
problems:
         Running a hub and forcing SQE
         Running a switch that can only run in full-duplex
         (if you run the DELQA in full duplex it seems to get confused if 
it receives
          a packet at the same time it is trying to transmit one)

Your MAU or DELNI should clear this up :-) In the mean time if you can 
force your switch to half-duplex it will help.

Run it with VMS for a while before you try that. Also check out the DELQA 
switch settings on my Web page 
<http://www.mcmanis.com/chuck/computers/vaxen/delqa.htm> and put the DELQA 
in 'DEQNA-lock' mode (which will basically force it to half duplex anyway)
