You claim that just _starting_ two clients for two servers at the same
time, there is a problem - that may be so. I think I am more concerned
however that you say can also get stuck sometimes with just ONE client start.

If that is so, I would like to look at it first. I suspect it is a
client REstart, however, not just a start. A REstart would present some
of the characteristics of starting two at once - because I think
killing the client is the difficulty.

I am now running a 2.6 kernel (2.6.3 - and my laptop has frozen once
already, but 2.6 kernels do that to it) and can start looking atthe
problem.
