PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Product Name ND-no. Category
OWS Access Server 211297A STPR

3 Disabling Timeouts

The program OWS-DISTIME-A07:PROG distributed with the product is to be used to disable timeouts on TELNET connections from OWSs to the host machine. The program generates the node file OWS-DISTIME:MODE which must be run as a node job to disable the timeouts. The mode file TCP-START:MODE distributed with TCP/IP contains the necessary commands to generate and run this mode file. If you are re-installing the product and files with the name format OWS-DISTIME-<ver>:MODE exist under user SYSTEM then you should remove them before running TCP-START:MODE.
