Subject: conntrack idle timeout
Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2003 21:09:24 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3E5C2FE4.3010007@slamb.org> (raw)
Is there a way to control the time it takes for an idle, established TCP
session to be purged from conntrack's state tables? I'm looking for the
something like "ipchains -M -S". I saw at
<http://www.syrlug.org/contrib/ipmasq.html> that there is no iptables
equivalent, but I'm hoping it's changed since then. Maybe there's a
sysctl or something?
The problem I'm experiencing is pretty simple. I leave ssh sessions open
for a while (possibly several hours). I come back to them and get a
"Connection reset by peer" error and have to open a new session. Back
when I used ipchains, "iptables -M -S 86400 10 60" or similar solved the
problem for me.
Thanks,
Scott Lamb
