The timeout you are hearing about is in NT terminal server, not Oracle -
databases
should and do rollback if they lose their connection.
With the terminal server timeout, they can reconnect within a short time and
their
entire desktop will be intact. I'm not a terminal server person so I can't
tell you how
to set it up; I've only seen it work.
