BTW, once the dumb-terminal user authenticates (logs-in) to BBS successfully, their inactivity timeout setting should revert to the same/normal inactivity setting you have set in SCFG for all users.

*when* exactly is this user "getting timed out" in their login process or user session? Can they provide you with a Scrollback/capture?

And as I said above, the terminal server log output for this user's session would be helpful.
