We used to have a problem with the firewall on our production website that behaved similarly, but with ldap. CF5 would open a connection to ldap and perform its first authentication. So far so good. CF holds connection to ldap open, since its bound to be using it again sometime! Firewall cuts connection after 5 minutes of inactivity. CF tries to use connection to ldap, but connection is not there anymore. CF5 is too brain dead to try to open another connection. All subsequent authentication requests fail.
I don't know (and have no way of finding out anymore) if CFMX fixes this.
