I will have to do more research. The problem I need to solve: My firewall keeps connections in its state table for 1 hour. So after one hour if you did a netstat on each host the connection appears up. But when host A sends data to host B, the firewall silently drops the packet. Host A will keep resending and its packets will get dropped. Host A times out and closes its socket. Host B nevers receives the FIN and it still shows the connection is up according to netstat. This is a pain because I have to constantly reeastblish connections between host A and B.I'd like to raise the timeout on my server to a lower value and maybe bump up the timeut value on the firewall to a higher value. I will do my research and post a summary since I've similiar types of posts in the past without complete explanations FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
