I need to telnet to my server at work and remain connected for sometimes hours
at a time, but frequently get logged off (after inactivity) with the
message "connection closed by foreign host".
I thought this was indeed the 'foreign host", but it doesn't happen when logged
in with my win95 box.
Any thoughts???
BTW, the host is an Alpha VMS, if this helps.
