Jeff,
I have no problems with a 950 on 5.0 with the full NS/3000 product loaded and
PowerPatch 2:

:nmmaint
NS3000/XL Transport 32098-20033  overall version = B.05.08
Network Services overall subsystem version:   B.00.11
NS3000/XL SERVICES:   36920B

:print hpswinfo.pub.sys
*******************************************************************
**                                                               **
**              *** MPE IX MIT C.50.00  ***                      **
**                                      POWERPATCH C.50.02 P6    **
....

However, this system is not under any load with only 40 users.

Fred Metcalf
