SSIS WebService task / Script task timeout

Hi,

I have a webservice which connects to a remote AS400 server and dumps a large amount of data into a SQL Server database.

I have been trying to call the service using an SSIS package. I tired using the Web Service task but the task times out as the webservice takes longer than 300 seconds, So i tried using the Script component in a DataFlow task but the package still timed out.

Is there a better way of running the webservice from an SSIS package ?

I am not expecting any result from the webservice so i don't mind if the package just initiates the call and moves to the next step.

I would appreciate any help on this.

Thank you.
