Title: Strange TCP Timeout problem Remeber your firewall waits a certain period for a
response if it does not get a response during that time it resets the
connection. This is normal behavior to prevent spoof attacks. you are more
concerned about timeouts you can increase this value if it still doesn't help
dsisable spoofing, but then you will be at risk.
Regards,
Hi I am busy figuring out a strange TCP timeout problem. Here's the scenario: A client machine (Unix) communicates via Internet to another machine pulling a list of +/- 1Mb files accross. In theory it's working fine - the client makes the connection and the file transfer starts. Then at random time (usually 1 to 3 minutes) the session aborts because of a timeout. I am suspecting a networking problem along the route, but you never know. Anyone out there that thinks it could be the firewall thats causing this? It's a Fw-1 4.0 (build 4031) on an Intel box. Internet is a 256K line. If so, any upgrades, patches amd so on that will be needed? Thanks Christo
