It seems that several of you in the past (Alex for one) have mentioned
having their Macs to freeze up when copying files over the network.

The following information about AppleShare MMgr INIT might address some
of the causes of these freezes (at least on AppleShare Servers --
although it says there are other configurations that might be affected).

Don't forget to check the site listed for latest information or update.

> The AppleShare Memory Manager INIT extension is provided to AppleShare IP customers. This extension resolves a condition where an AppleShare IP server may randomly freeze. This can affect any AppleShare IP 5.0.x and 6.0 server running Mac OS 7.6, 7.6.1, 8.0 or 8.1. A cosmetic indicator of this problem may be seen in the "About this Computer" window, where the Mac OS would appear to use 3.9 GB of memory. Please note that the AppleShare Memory Manager Init does not fix this cosmetic indicator. The freeze condition has been reported to occur most often when Retrospect is running on the AppleShare IP server. However, this is not the only server software configuration under which this may occur. The AppleShare Memory Manager INIT will only work if AppleShare IP server software is installed.
