DSL Timeouts... More info




Recap - Telnet and other services timeout after 15+ minutes of idle time...   
DSL w/ USwest

Something odd to add to the pot....

My network is setup something like so


 DSL <----->  Linux Firewall Box <------>  hub  <---> various other machines

The telnet session I make from the Firewall box do NOT timeout.   

The telnet sessions I make from the Other machines do... That's going in and
coming out....  
 
I assume my problem is going to be in the ipchains config of the firwall...  
I have yet to find anything abour timeouts however
