Nope.  It looks up the DNS entry once, then has an IP address.  It
makes a socket connection to that IP address and socket, and then if
the network stays up, so does the socket.

It's possible that the other end is dropping you, and Xastir has to
figure that out, disconnect, and reconnect, which takes a bit of
time.

Try doing "netstat -tcp" in an Xterm window on the RedHat box and see
what the TCP sockets think they're doing when you have that problem.
