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 "Mark S. Waterbury" <mark.s.waterbury@xxxxxxx> Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx 2003/12/06 19:09 To cc Subject 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)...
