You might want to consider changing your timeout values in system values. Look at QINACTITV, QINACTMSGQ and QDSCJOBITV. I run an internet based AS/400 time share service, so I get a lot of disconnects (especially via AOL;). I have QINACTITV at 60 minutes, QINACTMSGQ at *DSCJOB and QDSCJOBITV at 60 minutes. The QINACTITV is needed because sometimes a router or firewall in the loop someplace will keep the telnet connection alive even though the client fell off hours ago (perhaps your scenario). So, QINTER disconnects the job after 60 minutes of inactivity. The user then has an hour to reconnect to the same device name and pick up where they left off before the job is ENDed. I also have a little CL program that runs at signon that checks for multiple signons by the same user. This handles the scenario where they lost their connection and can't get their device name because it's still running. If there are more than two jobs running under the same user, the CL will disconnect one of them and inform the user that they must have dropped their connection. Then can then sign off and sign back on to their regular device description and pick up where they left off. It's a pain in the neck but it pretty much works. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Go... FASTER! Without an upgrade!

Although it no longer shows in WRKACTJOB I can't get connected with that named device until we IPL. My workaround is that I have several named devices to choose from. This also occurs with other telnet emulators. It's not just Mochasoft. hth "Lauritzen, Karl" wrote: > > Make sure you have the IP and name of your 400 in the HOST file on your pc. > > Use that name then in the connection on Mocha instead of the IP address. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Leif Svalgaard [mailto:leif@leif.org] > Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 3:08 PM > To: Midrange List Tech > Subject: Using Mocha > > I have an issue with the Mocha emulator. > I have a connection from my PC to an IP address > on an AS/400.
