I'm having a problem where connections to a Telnet server on a DMZ port
appear to be dropped by FW-1 after an idle time of 10 minutes.

If I connect to the telnet server from a box on the same subnet, the
telnet session remains open for greater than 10 minutes, but as soon as I
connect from a subnet behind the firewall I see the 10 minute timeout.

I happen to have a Packetshaper connected to the external interface of
the firewall, so I tried connecting to it via telnet to see if it would
drop after 10 idle minutes; it did!  I logged onto the Nokia command line
and tried telnetting to the Packetshaper, and the session remained after
10 idle minutes.

For background, the FW is on NG_R55; however it was upgraded (using
upgrade_export/import) from 4.1.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Chris
