Sounds like some of your users just aren't hitting the keys hard enough,
I've found that not only does this improve connectivity, it makes the system
run faster : )

Because of network "issues" in one of my remote locations I have changed the
max wait to 800 secs on my main online system. Main drawback is that when
users logoff with the "power" button it can take up to 30 mins for the vt
session to go away.

O.K.  On our open to the world "Empire" machine at 198.190.228.6 we have

"maxmimum time to wait" of 180 SECONDS  and..

"connection assurance interval" of 300 SECONDS

and users get bumped off in less than 2 minutes sometimes.  Sometimes they
can stay on all night.  Please explain that away if you will.
