When you connect to MITVMA via the login option in the login window, there
seems to be a timer that disconnects you after two minutes of no activity.
I assume that this is the same timer that times out when you don't type
a password during Athena logins. However, this occurs even after you have
logged into MITVMA. There is no such timout if you login with the userid
MITVMA from the login window.
This is presenting problems for MITVMA's users. Can this timer be disabled?
Thank you.
