We are in the process of migrating from a serial dataswitch-to-DTC environment
to a LAN NS/VT environment.  Presently the dataswitch is used to time out
and disconnect idle sessions.
 
How are NS/VT sites accomplishing this?  Is this something I can configure
with NMMGR, will the new Security/iX from HP do it, or is there some freeware
package I can get that will run on iX 4.0+?
 
PS: Setting the civar HPTIMEOUT won't do it because none of these end-users
are ever sitting idle at a CI colon prompt, i.e. they are sitting idle within
application VPLUS form reads.  Reprogramming with timed reads is not a viable
solution either.
