Sounds like a firewall issue in that it times out before the session. Many emulators have a 'keep alive' feature. Try that.

They had a T/R network. Emplyees had a Desktop PC with a T/R card and a 3270 emulator(Attachmate I think). They connected to M/F using SNA/LLC2 to an IBM 3172. I asked a few of the employees to try TN3270 from the emulator to the IBM TCP/IP TN3270 server. It worked but we started getting session hangs on the TN3270 sessions. Tech employees could just restart their sessions but production employees could not tolerate the interruptions so we went back to SNA/LLC2 sessions. Does this problem still exist?\ Bill ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html NOTICE: This electronic mail message and any files transmitted with it are intended exclusively for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
