Thanks for the responses.
The best way to change the "tcp_keepidle" parameter in the system is with "netconfig", which
is freeware available off the net. I got mine via anon ftp _at_ cs.ucsd.edu:/pub/csl/Netconfig. There
is a new release - 2.3 available and it works great. It's much easier than using dbx on vmunix.
My Original e-mail:
We have a 2100 running DU 3.2 which is basically used to run as a large Oracle
Server for the state. We have several queries being done from across the state
from sites with only a 56k line to a Frame Relay Service with a PVC conneciton in
to our server via a T-1 > Router connection. We are experiencing several
disconnects during queries. After much research, Oracle Reps. have asked
us (me) to check our kernel configuration for a low timeout configuration.
That's the problem. I know of no kernel option for setting am interface or
socket timeout. Here's the question:
Is there anyway to configure a timeout for a TCP/IP connection in DU 3.0 ?
