Dear list,
the attached patch allows for tweaking the TCP keep-alive socket options on Linux 2.4 and later. Thanks to the groundwork laid by Michal, this got fairly trivial.
We use this to keep NAT table entries alive for connections that are expected to have idle periods longer than the NAT time-outs of the routers in involved.
