I could be wrong but I think socks is doing it... I run socks on one of my
servers and I found it to be doing the same thing as you are talking about
I changed the Socks Conf file and everything is better...

<snip from man socks5>
       SOCKS5_TIMEOUT minutes
              minutes specifies the maximum number of minutes the
              connection remains idle. After  minutes  number  of
              minutes,   socks5   disconnects.   When   you  omit
              SOCKS5_TIMEOUT, socks5 disconnects after  the  con-
              nection is idle for 15 minutes.

  Hallo all,

  1) Is it normal on IBM FW 3.2, when the telnet session over Firwall (
socks
  connection ) breaks down after 15 minutes, when the session is
inactivate?

  2) Exists an option for changing this default timeout for the telnet
  session?

  Best regards Uwe
