Weird.  Things look normal up through frame 14, which is a READDIRPLUS
reply.  Then the server resends the reply after .2s, and and the client
resends its call shortly thereafter (but without acking the latest
reply).  And then the rest of the trace is resends of the reply.

So it looks like the client stopped ACKing the server's replies?

You may also have filtered out some TCP ACKs, which makes this harder to
work out.

Looks like a networking problem, but I don't know.
