    It looks like part of your question got cut off. If you are talking about getting that message as a user of this board, I don't think you can
    configure it. It would be a sysop setting. If you mean where do you set
    it on your own BBS, I think it is in the sbbs.ini file (maxinactivity).

    Okay, thank you Mike.
    It's weird, I didn't do the cut off thing. my computer got hacked? or somebody taps the wire and cut it off, I was about to say "the system prompts me 'are you really there?' when I don't input anything for a while".

    I think I have that time-out set at two minutes on this machine.
