Well, I found a work-around. I'd still be interested in an answer, as
I'm trying to keep up with 100 of these puppies, and it would be nice
to do it from one spot.
I went to the subscriber's Agent Properties (the actual job), and
altered Step Two by adding "-LoginTimeout 30" to the end. Worked like
a champ!
Thanks,
joseph
