Hello Patrick and Rob,

You can also set the timeout for an individual FTP session by issuing the TIME
command:

        quote time 99999999
or
        site time 99999999
or
        quote site time 9999999

depending on your FTP client implementation. This will effectively make the timeout
unlimited (well a bloody long time).

The timeout value is a long integer which means the maximum timeout is 2147483647
seconds (or approximately 68 years). I reckon you'ld IPL at least once in that time
so that makes it unlimited :)

I've seen limits that are relatively short, i.e. 7200 seconds (2 hours).
