} I compiled an ISS4 kernel shortly after it was released. I'm using ip_masq } to connect my local network (using the 192.168.0.0 ip block) to the inet } thru a 33k6 dialup. Before ISS4, i had no problems, but now it seems like } if I leave a telnet session idle for more than 20 minutes or so (maybe } half-hour), it gets closed. } } I presume this is somehow related to the ISS4, as this never happened } before updating to the ISS4 patch.
This is normal behaviour both before and after the ISS4 patch.
The masquerade tunnels have a timeout attached to them - this timeout defaults to 15 minutes for TCP sessions. It can be modified using the ipfwadm -s switch, as detailed in the ipfwadm man page.
