Hi All, It seems there are some routers floating around that break idle TCP connections after a specified amount of time. For example: "Sonicwall devices have that feature to close established connections when they hit a predefined timeout value with no data passing through." This causes some issues with Gnome's Nautilus/GVFS and sftp connections that I'm trying to handle more gracfully. The problem is I dont have a router that has this behaviour so I'm looking for a way to simulate it using iptables on my PC. I have read the thread about this from 2011 http://www.spinics.net/lists/netfilter/msg51963.html but it looks like a solution wasnt provided as the usecase didnt call for doing what was requested. I however DO want to break the established TCP connections. Does anyone know how I can do this? I don't mind if I need to edit code and rebuild as this is just for testing perposes so I will be reverting once I'm finished.
