Hello,

A client of mine has a workstation that is set to sleep after 30 minutes of inactivity. Naturally, this causes FM to loose connectivity with the server when the computer goes to sleep. They are using FM 10 on both the clients and the server. The client in question is running OS X 10.5.8.

I know that to prevent this I can set the computer not to sleep at all (or after a longer period of time), but I am wondering if there there any other way to handle this. It would be preferred to have the client sleep after half an hour only when FM is not running, for example.

Some applications seem to prohibit OS X going to sleep when they are running, and this is something I would like FM to do (the ideal case would of course be if it was easily configurable). Can this be done?

I don't suppose that FM can be made to reconnect automatically instead of giving the user an alert and shutting down?

Thanks!
