hello, I posted several questions in the mailing list "general", and received no response. I think that it is not documented where to manage the connection time-out as far as TCP/IP connections are concerned. My problem is the following: using a JDBC client, and long-lived connections, I see my connections being timed-out by the postmaster after having been idle for a given time. How could I modify the time-out time? Could the postgresql dev team answer this? thanks a lot, Stan. Trademine corp.
