Ah yes, the issue that never got resolved was the one where OpenXP would  
just sit there waiting for something to happen after sending a .REQ

OpenXP just sits there until either the session times out after 2 minutes  
or the user manually aborts the session before the session times out.

We never did figure out whether the culprit was OpenXP or whether it was  
MBSE.

Martin
