Compatibility with IBM zMFA- Elimination of Background Autthentication Checks

IBM zMFA is a product which PIV enables tools on the mainframe in accordance with federal requirements for multi-factor authentication. Currently, Toad DataPoint is not compatible with this software. It appears that Toad makes a login security check in the background after a period of idle time. Because it's using the last password that was entered, the process is failing as IBM zMFA generates a token which is only good for 5 minutes.
