We are having some issues using Dreamweaver (Adobe web design tool)

The machines work fine when connected locally, so I am speculating that
there
is some time out issue with Dreamweaver if the network is slow, or AFS
is slow
in retrieving data over a slower then normal network.
Has anyone seen any issues with Dreamweaver and AFS?
As soon as you say Cisco VPN I have to ask "which version" and "what
is the max mtu size that you can send across the VPN"?
Cisco VPN software prior to version 5.0 requires that the max mtu
of the AFS client be set at a value smaller than 1292. Otherwise
the packets are fragmented and dropped.
This is on the Mac OS 10.5.6 and acording to our Network people
the latest Cisco VPN for Mac is 4.9.0.1 (Still trying to get the AFS
client version form the user.)
I think it is a fragmentation thing, as he called earlier today
from on site, and fs checkservrs reported it could not get
to one of the servers, but a few minutes later after doing a traceroute
he said it was working fine!
Is there a way to set the MTU for AFS only on Max OS?
