Apart from the obvious missing couple of minutes is there anything wrong is
haveing the local pc sending a blip to the central server every say 10
minutes and when it does so the central server logs the IP and the last
logon time, when a search is then done by another user if the last logon is
greater than the current time plus the threshold then they are regarded as
offline..also if the user closes the program normally it send a blip to the
server setting itself offline..

Is there any benefit to having the above instead of permanent
connections..stress wise etc..
