AppleShare IP 6.3/Apple Remote Access Personal Server 3.5: Server Stops Responding ("Hangs") When ARAP Client Disconnects

On an AppleShare IP 6.3 server with an internal modem running Apple Remote Access Personal Server 3.5, the server may stop responding when the client disconnects.
Symptom

On an AppleShare IP 6.3 server with an internal modem running Apple Remote Access Personal Server 3.5, the server may stop responding when the client disconnects. This happens most often when the client connects via ARAP (Apple Remote Access Protocol), though it can also occur via PPP. It does not occur with an external modem.


Solution

Use an external modem on the server.
