Re: Does idle-timeout work in RRAS ?

George,

Thanks for the Tip.

Indeed, somewhere in the CurrentControlSet registry, I saw that the modems
had S19=5 ( meaning disconnect if idle for more than 5 minutes ) eventhough
I set the modems to disconnect after 10 minutes in the NT control panel.

I changed the registry setting to S19=10 .

Questions:

1. Will the change take place immediately or do I have to restart the RRAS
or RAS service first ?
2. Is there a fix to this already ?

- Danny
