Mind you, this is only a problem because FreeBSD is to bloddy stable: I logged into a customers server a few days a go, it had been up for over a year, and had accumulated tons of ftpds from WIN* machines which had gotten a vulcan nerve pinch or a different IP#. (I'm sure windows NT servers doesn't have this problem at all)
It doesn't have to be 2h timeout. I would be happy with a default of 24h, even one week would be OK with me. But infinity is too long for my taste. Can people live with a one week TCP keepalive as default ? -- Poul-Henning Kamp FreeBSD coreteam member p...@freebsd.org "Real hackers run -current on their laptop."
