ServerListenTimeout Metabase Property

  • Article

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 with SP1

The ServerListenTimeout property specifies the amount of time (in seconds) the server waits for a client to send data. After the allotted amount of time passes, the server disconnects the client. This property is not used by the WWW service in IIS 6.0, but it remains available for the FTP, SMTP, and NNTP services.

In IIS 6.0, this property does not apply to the Web service (IIsWebService, IIsWebServer). Use ConnectionTimeout Metabase Property, HeaderWaitTimeout Metabase Property, and MinFileBytesPerSec Metabase Property instead.
