There could be multiple reasons. Check TMOUT variable or there could be a firewall in between which set to do that.

Hi Susee,

You need to check for any timeout (TMOUT) variables set for inactivity. Also, check /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log for any messages. Start Inetd in logging mode enabled.

# inetd -l will help.

Hi siva,

Verify TMOUT variable in /etc/profile or .profile of user.

$ man ksh

TMOUT If set to a value greater than zero, the shell
terminates if a command is not entered within the
prescribed number of seconds after issuing the PS1
prompt.



rgs,
