The default is 5 minutes, per byte. The clock resets with each byte
received. If you didn't get a single byte in 5 minutes, chances are
you're not going to get anything at all.
The bandwidth isn't the issue here, it's packet loss. I've seen
these kinds of things occur when there's a pretty heavy packet loss
on the line.
Hmmm, I can't seem to ping any of the hosts that are causing
problems. So, unless their *all* behind the same type of firewall...
Very wierd. How can I prevent users from receiving those empty messages?
Thanks,
