My connections get dropped if I don't send out data on a connection in some time period which happens to be shorter than the idle-out times in NMC1. I need a mechanism to send some data to keep the connection alive but WITHOUT abusing the idle-out mechanism.

I believe there exists a (MUF) program that "pings" you with a line of /somthing/ every once in a while so you don't get droped.
it'd be nice if there was a way to make it only send something if you've been idle for 5 minutes, rather than doing it every 5 minutes just in case you've been idle.
