Quite a number of network connection drops have been reported in the past even with heartbeat enabled, particularly with Windows machines, and with one exception explained below, they have been related to bad network cards often needing firmware upgrades and to Windows networking problems involving large buffers (documented in the manual). The one exception to the above, of which I am aware, is that there seems to be a bug in OpenSSL in not correctly handling interrupted system calls -- this only occurs with version 5.0.x of Bacula and when running encryption. It is possible that it is a Bacula bug, but from everything that I have seen it has to do with the fact that OpenSSL doesn't seem to know to repeat an socket read/write when an interrupted system call occurs, instead it continues and eventually dies in a zlib routine. We don't have a fix for this.
