Thanks.

As a followup, the SIMH instance has been running without incident, 
other than the single drop when DECnet is started, for over four days 
now. Everything has been rock-solid. Apparently, that Intel network card 
had some issue that was causing what I was seeing.

Thanks again for all the replies. It was a most enlightening discussion, 
and I have a much better handle on how SIMH works now.
