Demo of FMS7 (timeout)

[Cardiofuse]

Does anyone know if the demo version (trial) has a built in timeout. After X hours the server stops without my command. I'm testing the demo version and want to make sure this does not happen in the real version. Thanks everyone.

Yes it does have a timeout. IIRC--and I may not since I don't use the trial versions--it's 2 hours. The released versions can be set to disconnect idle users after a specified interval. That is somewhat different than the scenario you describe however.

With the release of FileMaker Server 8, it may not be possible to acquire Filemaker Server 7 any more unless, of course, someone has copies in the distribution channel. See the info on the FMI web site for Server 8 upgrade pricing and features/benchmarking.
