That is the old story with the missing handshake for the data connection
with a PC.
Since nowadays PCs are much faster, the connection does not work properly
without synchronisation/handshake.
The workaround solution is to slow down the PC by heavily loading it with
dummy processes.
This canbe done using the so called >slow down< program in multiple
instances, depending on the processing power of your machine...
It should be available on Unna.
Cheers
Johannes
