This won't work for Net8, because Net8 opens secondary ports.

Any protocol which opens secondary ports will have the same problem, because
those secondary ports can't be permanently recorded in the timeout table.

Subject: Re: [FW1] tcp session timeout




I'm having a similar problem with users who are using SecuRemote 
complaining that their sqlnet2 sessions are timing out prematurely even 
though I have the SecuRemote timeout set to two hours.  Does anyone know if 
the following fix may solve this problem?
