Hi, I have recently installed Mandrake 7.1 within a LAN. I could telnet or X-Win into this new server (from another Windows98 PC) but so how my telnet connection will be closed by the server (perhaps telnetd) at some irregular period (from 3- 30 mins after connection is established). Does anybody know what .conf I should change to fix this problem ? Thank you for your help, regards Calvin _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
