Re: WDSC dropped connection.

I have been experiencing this also since I started using WDSC and connecting remotely over VPN. Host servers are not ended, I have always assumed it was a VPN setting, although it does not affect 5250 sessions. It does not occur when I am on-site (inside the firewall) and connected directly to the network. I just accept it as a fact of life when working remotely, and save frequently.
WDSC does give you the option to reconnect, and about 80% of the time it will reconnect successfully. The QRWTSRVR job from the prior session sometimes retains a lock on the member(s) that were open, but you are given the option to end that job and free the locks.

If there is a setting in the client, I would love to know about it.

I'd like to know if anyone has any ideas why my WDSC remote connection keeps
dropping and if there is any way to prevent it. The connection does not seem
to drop when I am on the local network using the exact same configuration as
when I am at a remote network with my laptop.

How often does this happen? Is it more than once a day? How are you
connected to the remote network? VPN? Is your remote connection
dropping & reconnecting?

Any chance someone (or some process) is ending the host servers?
