Subject: Timeout on iSeries Access V5R4 vs. V5R2
I have recently installed V5R4 iSeries Access on a Vista 64 machine. Until
that time, I've stuck with V5R2 over the years for no particular reason.
But Vista 64 and V5R2 "Access" do not get along, so I have upgraded. I
have found that my V5R4 sessions will time out frequently (perhaps they lack
a keepalive setting that I cannot find), while the V5R2 PCs stay active.
From the PC perspective, when this "timeout" occurs, I see "resolving to
host" on the next press of ENTER or function key or whatever. and then I am
blessed with a new signon display.
Will one of you kind souls please point me to the setting that needs to be
manipulated in order to make this a non-issue?
Thanks,
Dennis E. Lovelady
