You may want to look at your telnet keep alive setting.  Use the CHGTELNA
command to do this. I have about 100 remote users via the Internet that are
using an AS/400 at Ferris State University for educational learning.  We had
to increase the default setting for Telnet keep alive so users were not
auto-logged off unless they are away from their session for more then a set
number of seconds.  We moved it up to something like 6000 seconds from the
original setting of several hundred seconds.  I hope this helps!

You are correct, it is only our remote users. I am the AS/400 admin, but am
not sure which IP settings you are referring to. Can you be a bit more
specific?

I assume only Stuart's remote users experience these dropouts, so it should
be a telecom related issue.
In this case QINACTIVITY won't help too much ...

Stuart, my opinion:
- if the connection is VPN, see the VPN client parms on your side
- check if 5250 stream is not timed-out by your ISP
- check timeouts and rules on the remote firewall, for all protocols and
the 5250 stream
- talk to the AS400 admin to check IP settings on his side

Stuart, take a look at system value (WRKSYSVAL QINACTITV) Inactive job
time-out.  Also check QDSCJOBITV Time interval before disconnected jobs
end.
These two may be causing your users to time out and dropping conectivity.

We have a situation here that I was hoping someone might have some
experience with.

We are running System 21 at one of our subsidiary companies, using the
Internet as the connectivity medium. Over the past few weeks, they have
been
experiencing what they are calling drop outs, where the session they are
running is disconnected from the 400. As you can imagine, this causes
problems with record locks, which are easy to fix, and session lost, which
cause our users untold consternation.

The cause of this seems to be the AS/400 losing the connection. It seems to
be timing out, due to the connectivity issues. My question is do any of you
know if there is an OS/400 parameter that can be set for a longer timeout
period, and if so, how to change it?

Thanks in advance.
