Rob,

I know you have it set where if a terminal (i.e. SyncTerm) isn't
detected (it's usually a bot), the inactivity timeout is reduced to 75
seconds. I did save a message about where that data is...but is it
possible to change the variable to lower that timeout for these idiots??

SCFG->Nodes->Node 1->Advanced Options->Inactivity Disconnection. The default is 600 seconds, which means the non-ANSI terminal will have a hangup/timeout of 150 seconds (25% of 600).

Rob,

SCFG->Nodes->Node 1->Advanced Options->Inactivity Disconnection. The default DM>600 seconds, which means the non-ANSI terminal will have a hangup/timeout of DM>150 seconds (25% of 600).

I noticed my settings are 180 seconds for the inactivity warning, and
300 seconds for a disconnection. So, that explains why my values are as
they are. I thought it was something in the script.

The "25%" comes from the script.

so if i'm doing the math properly, if he wants a 30 second drop time for the bots, he'd want to put 240 as his "inactivity disconnect" time out, right? 25% of that is 60 and half of that is 30...

25% of 120 is 30.

i was trying to follow your writing above with the other information available...

default 600 seconds
non-ANSI termination 150
where'd the 75 come from that we see as in below? is it not the 150 divided in half?


Mar 28 11:49:05 haven synchronet: term 0031 Telnet connection accepted from: 111.243.7.207 port 42418
Mar 28 11:49:05 haven synchronet: term Node 1 attached to local interface 192.168.xxx.xxx port xxxxx
Mar 28 11:49:05 haven synchronet: term Node 1 11:49 Wed Mar 28 2018
Node 1
Mar 28 11:49:05 haven synchronet: term Node 1 Telnet <no name> [111.243.7.207] Mar 28 11:49:11 haven synchronet: term Node 1 Terminal not detected, reducing inactivity hang-up timeout to 75 seconds
Mar 28 11:49:42 haven synchronet: term Node 1 disconnected
Mar 28 11:49:44 haven synchronet: term Node 1 thread terminated (0 node threads
remain, 150 clients served)


so i figured it backwards 75 is half of 150 and 150 is 1/4th of 600...

600 * .25 = 150
150 / 2 = 75 for non-ANSI bot termination

so, for the example i gave...

240 * .25 = 60
60 / 2 = 30 for non-ANSI bot termination

[EDIT]

ahh... i see what i did... i didn't know that max had reduced the default timeout to 300 seconds in her setup :oops:

sorry 'bout that :?
