Sorry, I replied too soon.

I have checked my logs more carefully, and the message you mention, as
well as another one, mentioning "Network read failure: Connection
closed", seem to occur on dial-up clients, usually after quite a while
(over 10 minutes since the initial connection).  This looks to me like
some kind of timeout.  I have also seen two "Network write failure:
Connection lost" messages, which I haven't been able to trace.

Hope this helps.
