Sorry it's been a while ago but I was on holiday. Yes I have experienced
this on our IBM 7171 protocol converter. Despite a timer in the
controller on the modem signals the session is not timed out. I think
this is because the problem lies with VTAM. I've never gone deeply
into the problem because it happens verry rarely. A solution might be
the development of a Netview Clist in this,
