RE:

Yes, it usually means the server is not responding.  I can't tell what your 
client server set up is from your email, however try checking the TCP/IP 
address is truely pointing to the correct server.  Also check the client 
interface to the server for problems (client access or whatever you use). 
 There may also be a runaway job on the server preventing the hook up.  If 
all else fails, call SSA, ask for a financial helpline consultant, and if you 
have to leave a voicemail, ask them to perform a word search in their problem 
tracking scope system for the following words:  BPCS 6.02  AS/400  CEA 
 Connection timeout
Make sure you ask them to print and fax the descritpions of the problems they 
find and give a complete fax number (including country and local code if need 
be).
Hope this helps and Good luck!

Has anyone encountered connections timeout problem?

We are in our final test stage with the users and we get BPCS's message
Connection timeout at anytime every day! It does not halt the program
and it prompts to retry.   We are running Windows 95 over a Novell
Token-ring LAN.
