Goal

TUX 7.1, 8.0/Jolt 1.2.1 An application is configured with USERAUTH security level.  Jolt server has encryption turned
on (CLOPT -Z 56 or -Z 128).  Once in a while, a Jolt client hangs when trying to connect to JSL. The JSH logs a
message into the userlog:

145104.TuxMachineName!JSH.xxx.1.-2: JOLT_CAT:1133: "ERROR: TPINIT information must be  passed to tpinit() call in
secure application"

Once this message is printed,  the Jolt client pauses, and then fails with TPEPERM error. Other clients also get the
TPEPERM error.  This problem does not happen if encryption is turned off.  

Looking at src/T6.3/JSrv/jwshprot.c, the JOLT_CAT:1133 ERROR occurs when the test on line 1276 fails:
               if ((msg->datalen <= 0) &&
                               (WSH->_WSH__wshinfo->authlev != TPNOAUTH)) {

This problem does not occur unless the JSH is under heavy load.  The problem happens intermittently.  Once the problem
happens, it can cause other clients to fail with TPEPERM errors.  The AUTHSVR writes CMDTUX_CAT:4130 to the userlog:

145105.lcsol19!AUTHSVR.22963.1.0: CMDTUX_CAT:4130: INFO: Authentication failed for user...
