Richard,

You want to keep long idle legitimate connections to keep alive and dead 
connections to be disconnected from the server side at a certain time. 
Correct? DCD is exactly what you need. It's possible some sophisticated 
firewalls are smart enough to know an Oracle DCD packet has no payload 
in the data layer and so discard it. The firewall admin should be able 
to tell if that's the case.

If you find DCD "not working", you can check the packet to make sure 
it's sent. I have a little detail at
