I am seeking seeking help on whether System 11 supports a configuration
parameter which will automatically kill a process after a certain clock
time has expired, say ten minutes.

We have a situation where a browser client or Web Server client (SybPerl)
is being terminated before the Sybase server has returned all the results.
The Sybase process then goes into a sleep state but holds locks needed by
other processes indefinitely.

Thanks in advance for any help.
