We are running cisco switches, but I don't think that changing the switches is an option.

Hi Matt:
What kind of switch are you using? We ran into a bunch of problems with a Cisco switch recently in a very high traffic environment. Try a straight cut through switch ...At this point it seems that an Extreme switch solved our problem...

Hello,
I have been having oplock break time outs, and I can't seem to isolate the cause of the problem. It is only certain clients that are experiencing the problem. One of the clients seemed to be fixed when I moved it from the switch that it was on to a hub (which doesn't make any sense, and may be coincidental)
Also, I never noticed these problems before we converted to a fully switched network
The clients are win98 and nt4. I am running NetApp Release 5.3.6R2.
I am now running with oplocks disabled, but it seems like a poor solution to me.
Any help appreciated, Matt
