This is somewhat OT.

From home I use PuTTY SSH on an XP laptop through a wireless router
attached to
Comcast cable to access the VMS cluster. If I go to another window for a
while
and return to the VMS session the connection gets closed, so I tried
opening
another window and ran a script which just loops endlessly
$ start:
$ sho time
$ wait 00:01
$ goto start

but it only keeps that window alive, so I guess that the two sessions have
different IPs. Don't suppose there is any way of doing this?

Not two different IP's. Two different ports. Each port has its own
inactivity timer.

Looks like you're lucky they're timing all activity. Some systems
only time input activity so the above won't work.

We used to have folks spawn a subprocess to do something like the
above slowly in the background. Just make sure the application
you're running can be used with "broadcast" messages on the screen.
