What amount of time is 'short enough'? If I leave my desk for 2 minutes to fill my coffee cup can someone get to sensitive data? If it takes me 2 minutes to look up something in a file cabinet attached to my desk will I be incensed if my session automatically dies? Are other security techniques in place to cover this? If I do a Alt-Ctrl-Del/Lock Computer and turn on my password activated screen saver while I go get my coffee cup are our security concerns addressed? (File locks are a separate issue.) If I use a dumb terminal with a keylock switch, and use the keylock, are my security concerns addressed? What about non5250 applications? If I have a Excel session with downloaded data, or the ability to download new data, and leave my workstation will QINACTITV address that? No. Why do I not care about that, yet care only about 5250? Is it only because the technology is readily and simply available? Can I simply address this by using a password activated screen saver? DSPSYSVAL QINACTITV *NONE Rob Berendt
