OK, more details.
You are correct and I apparently did not hit the C hard enough. :) I am
running WDSC - IBM Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries version
7.0.0.
The client iSeries OS is 6.1.
The company iSeries is 6.1 and 7.1 (different LPars of course). There is
also an antique in the corner running V5R4M0 that doesn't have a problem
either.
I'm not sure about the product release levels and which ones I should look
at.
I really think there is a weird network problem here and was hoping I could
point them in the right direction. I have hit other problems with then
where they are not "blocking" any outbound traffic but I can't VPN into my
company without connecting to my hotspot instead of their network.

John,
WDS is the product name for SEU, SDA, RLU, and whatever else exists under
that "Websphere Development Studio" banner...
There USED to be an eclipse based client that was labeled as "Websphere
Development Studio Client", or WDSC for short... This product has been
replaced (several times) by "Rational Developer for POWER systems", commonly
referred to as RDi. Current version is 9.1. I assume that when you say
WDS, you really mean RDi.
OS and product release levels?
Firewall is still probably the culprit. We maintain an internal "PCI
Segment" to rigidly control network access across this "boundary". If your
host stores PCI controlled data (Credit Card anything), then it is likely
behind another firewall.

Subject: Websphere Development Studio dropping connection
When I use WDS at one of my clients, my session disconnects after an idle
period (not sure how long, maybe 30 minutes) and I have to close and restart
WDS to get reconnected. When I get reconnected and try to reopen the source
member that I had open it tells me the member is already open and gives me
an option to kill the old job. It is also worth mentioning that I do not
lose my 5250 connection when this happens so it is not a network dropping
issue.
When I am connected to my company's iSeries, I can leave WDS idle for hours
and I never lose the connection. Is there some kind of timeout on my
client's iSeries that is causing the disruption?
