I'm not exactly sure what a keep alive connection looks like, unless you just mean periodically hitting a page with JavaScript once every 55 minutes. If I hit a CFM page, it would keep my session from ever expiring which would not be good. What if I requested something simple like an image from the server if the page was open for an hour? Is that the kind of thing you are talking about?

I love politics, it's a Dilbert world. > Anyone have an "outside the box" kind of solution for me? It does indeed look like ServerIron allows the TCP age to only be between 2 and 60 minutes. How about sending a keep alive connection to the server using a timer within each page of the application? If a session is in danger of timing out, hit a generic timeout URL with a request to keep the session live on the load balancers.
