Thanks.  That is what I was thinking too.  Just wanted to make sure I
wasn't missing anything.

** Exactly.  This MT would be for a select (*trainable*) few.  If they
were following a URL from an email they would end up hitting the main MT
(actually a DNS alias for a load balanced VIP of main MTs).

There is no real harm in them using the main MT other than their session
will time out and they will encounter a message saying they are
connected from another machine, allowing them to override.

One option would be to have a filter that monitors the AR System Email
Messages form to look for emails with "http://web/arsys/";.  If a MT URL
is being sent then look up the recipient to see if they should get the
special MT.  If they use the special MT REPLACE web with web1.

        If you did the multiple MT servers with different timeout value
how would you handle the emails that come from the application server?
Would they all say http://web/arsys/forms/ars/form even if you had web
for most people and web1 for say your Help Desk?

        ** Another option would be to have another Mid-Tier server with
a different timeout value.  We were planning on doing what Joe suggested
for our service desk but recently have been kicking around the idea of a
dedicated MT with a much longer timeout for them. 


        Of course they need to know how to get to their own MT vs. what
the rest of the enterprise uses as well as we have not worked out a way
to enforce only the appropriate people are using this MT (wish there was
a $MTSERVER$ keyword in AR).  Worst case we can do it at the web server
level to filter traffic.

                Bola,
                 
                Create workflow on forms where it should not timeout, to
auto run a dummy transaction before the timeout happens.. This would
mean a overhead on those clients by way of active links running on
intervals running a dummy modify or create transaction to a dummy form..
Permit this workflow to run only when members of the groups that need
this are logged in..
                 
                That would be the quickest and dirtiest and perhaps the
only way of doing it...
                 
                Cheers

                Does anyone know how to make the session not to timeout
for some groups on Middtier?
