Vantage 6.1 license timeout

Bill,
If I might reuse Sarah's response of this past Sept. 14th,

"We use the progress registry setting to timeout. We have it set to 20
minutes. For users we do not want to timeout at all, we just give them the
'trick' of keeping office data collection open and they will never timeout."

This should point you in the direction you need to look.
Good luck,
Aaron Hoyt

Subject: [Vantage] Vantage 6.1 license timeout.


Sorry if this has been beat-to-death but a search did not turn up
anything.
I have taken over as IT Manager of a Vantage 6.1 company and have
noticed the hording of the Vantage licenses by the users. No one
wants to logoff fearing that they will not be able to get a license
token back when they may need it later in the day.
I also manage another company that used Syteline which has license
time-out functionality build-in.

Is there a way to force a time-out of a Vantage license? This new
company tells me that they did have a solution at one time but lost
this functionality with the last upgrade.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
