I do not recall that the AUTOLOGOUT is ignored for the paging prompt for LIST. Has it always been that way?
The UV User Ref simply says: "Use AUTOLOGOUT to enable or disable automatic logout. With AUTOLOGOUT enabled, UniVerse logs you out automatically if you have not pressed a key within a specified time." Recently I have been hit with a rash of telnet sessions that are sitting at that prompt and not timing out. HPUX, UV10.0.16, Pick flavour. LOGIN paragraph specifies AUTOLOGOUT 30. After 30 minutes of inactivity, i.e., sitting at a prompt, the user is typically logged out as a means of controlling license use. Generally that's been working well since long before I started here. A little testing shows that AUTOLOGOUT is honoured when paging from inside a basic program: (e.g.: FOR I=1 TO 1000; CRT I; NEXT I ) but not from LIST: ( e.g., LIST VOC ). I don't remember ever giving this much thought and I don't find any clear documentation on it. I also don't recall any grief from it until this past week or two. The obvious question is "What's changed?": I don't *think* anything changed in UV config, admin/setup, user initialization. I *think* a changing business demand may be stressing certain suspect screen listings more than before. I would like to have AUTOLOGOUT honoured by RetrieVe's paging prompt. don't know how or if possible.
