Setting the ADDE Server Timeout

By default, ADDE servers timeout if the client application (that requested the data) does not read any of the data for a period of 120 seconds. You can change the server timeout period with the environment variable ADDETIMEOUT. To do so, complete the steps below.

1. Add the following line, where numseconds is the timeout period in seconds, to the remote server account's $HOME/.mcenv file.

export ADDETIMEOUT; ADDETIMEOUT=numseconds

2. Examine the remote server account's $HOME/.profile file and add the following line if it's not already present. Be sure to leave a space between the period (.) and $HOME.

. $HOME/.mcenv
