I don't think any configuration issues will help on this one. The
same problem has occurred a number of times on the same Portmaster
for about a year for us. I've also found that it sometimes only
happens on certain ports whne the PM is busy which has resolved
itself after restting the ports or more often a reboot. Out of 10
PM's, it seems to only occur on the one.
