there are a couple of ways to uproach this if masq is
your problem (using ipchains )
ipchains -M -S tcptimeout tcpfintimeout udptimeout
all in seconds so setting
ipchains -M -S 7200 120 300
tcp = 2 hours
tcpfin = 2 minutes
udp= = 5 minutes
make sure you turn keep_alive in ssh ( by default this
is on i think)
you can even tweak linux for tcptime outs
i dunno the defaults mine is set to 7200( 2 hours)
edit /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time
echo 14400 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time
to set it to 4 hours :)
oh try to look if TMOUT ( in bash echo $TMOUT ) is
also set
TMOUT=1200
export TMOUT
this makes connections (telnet/ssh) to timeout in 20
minutes of idle time
( i know this is kinda a long shot but it is worth
checking administrators sets this variable for the
people who always to forgot to logout when they login
:) )
