Belated happy holidays to all!
Just to be clear does the forced upgrade apply to the gateway as well? I don’t enough about the vulnerability they are trying to patch and whether forced tws upgrade means tws plus gateway.

Actually that's been there since Gateway 975, so quite a long time now, and no, there's no way to switch it off.

However it also has the alternative Auto-relogin mechanism introduced in TWS 974, so if you're not using IBC, you can just use that mechanism. Then you only have to login once a week and it will automatically restart the Gateway and log you back in again every day at the time you specify.

If you ARE using IBC, you need to understand that IBC does not work with this auto-relogin (even though the setting for it is visible with the latest version of IBC). So you either have to just restart IBC every day, or stop using IBC and just use the Auto-relogin. Your choice will be influenced by how much you depend on IBC.

Hi all,
Following the forced upgrade, I ended up with gateway 10.12.2d.
This brings with it the same time based logout behaviour that tws had. The point of using gateway is to avoid this kind of thing, so I'm guessing there's a setting somewhere to switch this off?
Anyone know where it can be disabled?
Best wishes (and merry Xmas)
