Hi,

Edit /etc/profile and put this line at the end of that file.

export TMOUT=0

Login again

Check to see if you got the TMOUT variable set to a non zero value in your .profile.
$ grep TMOUT .profile
I got mine set to ..
export TMOUT=0
which means there is no timeout setting for my login session. If this is not set in your .profile it may be set globally in /etc/profile. Simply edit the file and set it to zero.

Hi,

Give this command

#ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_keepalive_interval 7200000

here 7200000 is in milliseconds which extends the timingout of TCP idle connection to 2 hours.

Change that paramter according to your requirement.

Edit /etc/rc.config.d/nddconf for making changes permanent.
