I agree with your last point, I'll bet it's the VPN either resetting or
requiring new authentication which it gets from the cached credentials. I
highly doubt it's RDI or ACS causing your issues. I run in the
environment you describe all day with multiple customers and it's the VPN
that drops after some period of time causing the issue.
I have some limited success in getting customers to make that limit 24 hours
for my log on, but not everyone can/will do that.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Timeout Errors
Hi All,
For the last 6 months or so I have been using RDi and ACS over a VPN.
I consistently get errors with RDi which seem to happen around the 2 hour +
mark.
I don't have the message dialog to hand but the RDi log looks like this:
java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out at
java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method) at
java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead(SocketInputStream.java:127)
at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:182)
at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:152)
at com.ibm.as400.access.DataStream.readFromStream(DataStream.java:52)
at
com.ibm.as400.access.ClientAccessDataStream.construct(ClientAccessDataStream
.java:58)
at
com.ibm.as400.access.AS400ThreadedServer.run(AS400ThreadedServer.java:357)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:785)
Once this happens I have to disconnect from the System in Remote System
Explorer ( which gives a fail message ) and then reconnect.
Then I have to end the QRWTSRVR job on the IBMi which will still have a lock
on the source member I was editing.
This happens consistently several times every day and at roughly 2 hour
intervals ( I think )
I don't have problems with ACS getting disconnected and the tech guy at the
client site I am connecting to says there is nothing in the VPN that would
kick me out on a time-based interval.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
I'm not sure how to trace it further but it is kind of annoying having to
end QRWTSRVR jobs every couple of hours every day.
I'm still on RDi 9.6.0.1 but this issue has been there for a while.
Obviously I can see there is a read time out error, there is nothing in the
log to suggest any kind of disconnection.
If I had to guess, my money would probably a disconnection related to the
VPN, which my general network and ACS are able to recover from but RDi not,
however I have nothing to substantiate this.
Any advice / comments gratefully accepted.
thanks,
Craig
