OK, bumped to 1hr for anon and auth access. > I see no significant downside to increasing the timeout? All I can think of is that a bunch of stale connections might start hanging around. But if they are idle they ought to be harmless (?). BTW, do you understand why anon access (/etc/xinetd.d/bzr-hpss) passes the --allow-writes option? That makes no sense to me. It runs as user nobody, so it cannot (and should not) write anything.
