This scenario would be contingent on the api creating a connection to
the arserver.  Does this api work this way, and is the server
unlicensed?

If this is an unlicensed server, you may be in the unfortunate situation where

set the timeout to, it's never enough!

Yes, it's happened to me at least once.  I'm sure I'm not the only person who's fallen 
into this little trap, but it me feel really dumb when I realized what was happening...  
"D'oh!"

Suddha,

How much time does this program take to complete?
How does that value compare to the ARS Server Timeout setting for
Process Timeout?
