We are having a problem with an FTP which is running out of a .bat file that
is executed as a Windows Schedule Task that gets hung up. We believe the
hang is due to a broken TCP/IP session that the FTP client doesn't
recognize.
When these tasks hang, the scheduler for this FTP will hang as well, as the
DOS box the batch file runs in never gets closed out.
We've tried setting the scheduler's "Schedule Task Completed - Stop the task
if it runs for: ...." to timeout after two minutes, but it never shuts down
the hung task.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to flush these hung tasks (at least until
I find an FTP client with better error recovery)?
Thanks in advance for any help. Please post any responses to the news
group.
