Mark,

Thanks for the suggestion, but as I mentioned at another customer site 
where we had a port open for Telnet as well as 397 for AnyNet, the 
STRPASTHR via AnyNet woudl time out after 5 to 6 minutes, but a TELNET 
session woudl stay up for hours.  Both with the same settings for TCP keep 
alive.

..Neil

Hi, Neil:

Try checking what is their default for TCP "keep alive" ...

Prompt the CHGNETA command on their system; the first parameter
is TCPKEEPALV ... you might need to increase this value... (but I am
not sure how this may or may not "interact" with AnyNet...)

Hope that might help? (no guarantees, though)...

Mark
