(most) Unfortunately the SESSION_TIMEOUT and DS_TIMEOUT_DETECT variables only work from certain porting sets up, depending on your version.

Baan has been promising the incorporation of these very usefull settings for Vb with every new release. The current word is that they work in ps 7.x but I haven't been able to make that step yet.

DS_TIMEOUT_DETECT is used by the bshell in order to check if the client bw still is alive. If it isn't it will stop the bshell.

The session_timeout works but you can't use the functionality for checking $BSE/lib/systemmess! They don't work together.

if you want to timeout users still logged in (as against dead bshells) you need to make sure you don't corrupt or lose data. An attempt should be made to save the data before automatically logging off and if the user is in certain sessions, they should not be disconnected.

This functionality cannot be instigated from the Baan server-side, the best solution is CloseIdle.
