Dosemu times out

Dosemu times out

[J.Strohschnitter]

Hi there,

I've got the problem, that a started dosemu crashed without any error-message.
This problem occurs only, when nothing would be done for approximately 30
minutes.
Is this a general problem under dosemu ?

No, I have had xdos session running for days with no such problems. I'm

using 1.1.3.2, but I doubt if 1.0.2 should have a problem here.

Hi,

here are the infos, sorry :-)

DOSEMU 1.0.2-1 (International from 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dosemu-intl/)
Compiled with "make" under SuSE Linux 7.2 with Kernel 2.4.16-4GB

As root also as any other user under xdos and dosemu. 

Under Dosemu, I've activated the Novell-Support and connect to the 
Linux-Server with the Novell-Client and MarsNWE. 
I tested it without using Novell, so there are no crashes, but the application
needs Novell to get connected to the lan. There is no way to use redir or
Samba.
Is there a general problem with Novell and Dosemu ? I'm using Novell-Client
with vlm.exe-Version 1.11 and tested it with 1.22-beta, too.

Thanxx for your help :-)

Not general but rather well known, see this:
