Couple of Xerox 6085 questions

1. Anyone who has played with Xerox systems will have encountered the dreaded 0937 code at boot time; it means "I have been configured for network operations. I abjure the world and will wait until hell freezes over before continuing the boot - unless I get the time from a network time server!" This is inconvenient and frustrating at times. Netware IPX/SPX is basically Xerox XNS implemented pretty much unchanged; does anyone happen to know if a Netware server can provide network time server functions - and in a way that a Xerox workstation would grok? 2. I haven't powered up my 6085s in a long time - at least 5 years; maybe 10 for some of them. The results have been most disappointing. They won't even *start* POST - and/or they give a rolling screen with no sync - and/or a blank screen - and/or they pass POST but won't boot with an 0151 error. I've tracked these down in most cases to flaky IOB boards. These boards hold the system PROMs. Anyone else seen similar issues? Could it be bit rot in the PROMs? Is that a known thing with 6085s?
