One can also edit the .WS object with Notepad. Put the statement KeepAlive=Y
immediately after the [Telnet 5250] statement.

Turn off your windows firewall. OS400 V5R2 will send a keep alive probe
to each established TN5250 connection. Windows Firewall blocks this.
OS400 drops the connections.

The

TN5250 sessions will time out after 5 - 10 minutes of inactivity. I
have many other PC's in the office running the same version of CA that
do not have this problem. I'm thinking it is probably a setting

either

in CA or on XP itself that is causing this, but I have not been able

determine what it might be. In the iSeries job log I'll see the
following error messages at the time of the timeout. Sorry about the
orientation.
