Hi, I have a strange problem with 4.3-Stable system (it existed in 4.2-Stable as well). My FreeBSD machine is used as stepping off point from our inside network. The general model is to ssh to it and then connect out from there, usually to a router with telnet. If I ssh to it, I can do anything I want, no problems. The connection never drops and continues to work. However, if from that window, I telnet to a Cisco, the connection will time out and freeze after about an hour or so of inactivity. It will still do that if you had already logged out of the cisco. I don't think it's related to the ssh since, it will do the same thing if you telnet to the FreeBSD machine and telnet out. This happens for both on and off network routers. Connection to the FreeBSD machine is through a Firewall-1 4.1 machine (sun). I haven't tried from the console.
