Is it just the power settings on the local machines? Are they hibernating? I would suggest you not have the application left open for a long period of time anyway unless these are maintenance programs.

There could also be restrictions set on the users on the novell box.

>We are running a FP2.6 sytem on Windows 95/98 machines using a Novell 5 network. Occasionally we have machines that close down the FoxPro app, sometimes as often as once an hour. It doesn't crash just closes. However the Windows box is still attached to the network. Has anyone seen something like this before? The FP app is running on the server not on the clients.
