Subject: Re: [pgadmin-support] Keep-alive?
Each database has its own connection to the server (just checked with netstat), and thus is individually target of a firewall surveillance/ forced tcp disconnect.
Good point, same problem as the icmp keep alives.
To avoid to much concentration of that not very common matter - a firewall not in control of the DBA, but configured the way do enforce keep alive - this should be handled by the DBA itself. A solution would be to just establish a connection forwarding via SSH and a small shell script running in the control channel (shell) outputting some letters in a loop with delay of some seconds.
The only thing which would be nice to have at least on windows, would be support for socks protocol. tsocks works good on linux, but I have yet to see any equivalent of this for win32.
Just my 0.0002c ;)
