Hey,

I think I solved the timeout problems with Helios running on faster
pentium-class PCs.  You need to set the following hidden option in
host.con to a very large number:

BOGOMIPS = 9999999

This only applies to the following server versions:

DOS Server V3.126 April 1995
Windows Server V3.126 April 1995
Windows Server V3.201 April 1998
Windows NT Console Server V3.127 January 1997

NOTE: There are V3.126 versions of the host server (both DOS and
Windows) that DOES NOT have this option.  There is no good way to check
this. I used the SUN "strings" command to check to see if BOGOMIPS was
present in the exe.


Good luck,

Ram
