Andrew,
Does it lose its senses at the same place/file each time?
Just out of curiosity...which G4 are you using? If it's a G4MP there are
some known issues with the summer 2000 models dropping ethernet after
running fine for a good while.
If it's not a summer model then you could do two things:
1) move the tape drive to the G4 and see what happens when you back up
locally.
2) move the tape drive to some other machine (not an ASIP server) and see
what happens with the G4 when you back it up (for that matter, back up
the G3 ASIP server as a client and see what happens with it as well).
Maybe these results will help you narrow down where to look for the
problem.
hth,
Pam
