Hey, any problem last night that you want to fight with me? I will explain you one thing, this is an Italian company so the priorities are as follow: - Espresso - Some more espresso - Emails - Espresso - Is lunch time already? - Espresso - Oops, the vessels - Espresso - We need a rest, let's go home Of course, we don't allow the users to waste their "company paid" time on none sense stuff like facebook.

Oh, so it's OK for your users to walk away from their desks and leave the applications open that control shipments on transportations vessels while they drink coffee in the kitchen for 4 hours, but damn the torpedoes if they want to look at Facebook, eh? Nice. t From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of D PIETRUSZKA USWRN INTERLINK INFRA SHIFT MGR Sent: Wednesday, February 03, 2010 4:39 AM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Re: Question and confesion. Yeah, I understand, and to be honest before going into all the security concerns I was looking for a "NO, THAT CAN'T BE DONE WITH ISA" by that way I would pass the problem to them again. The application was done with (I mentioned this crappy thing thousands of times here) JINITIATOR, it is a ridiculous forms builder from Oracle, compatible with nothing else but Oracle DBs and didn't respect any minimum standard of this world. The problem is, on our business (transportation Vessels) there is a lot of websites build based on Jinitiator apps. Going back to the port opened for long time, is there a way to do it (I'm not talking about exact 4 hours, but yes a bigger than usual amount of time), I couldn't find anything on my own? If this is possible, then I will discuss with my boss the security concerns and is going to be his call on that. Thanks Regards Diego R.

On what basis does this particular individual offer this sage (or terragon) advice? wattamaroon... Let them reconnect. If hte application itself needed that much time, it can be built to send "heartbeats", like any other appli cation that expects a long idle time (EAS clients, ferinstance) Asking to "leave a port permanently open" is asking for a DoS. ________________________________ From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] on behalf of D PIETRUSZKA USWRN INTERLINK INFRA SHIFT MGR [DPietruszka@xxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2010 11:22 AM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Question and confesion. OK, first the confession: I'm migrating to TMG (well no for own decision but.....) Now the question and is not related to that migration. Our users needs to use an application that goes over internet on port 7778 (the number is not really important but..), the problem is, my users work on this application and then they decided to take a coffee in the kitchen living the app opened. Since is an internet connection, the connection just become disconnected for inactivity, then the user come back click on some option of the app and receive an error, this is because the application doesn't have the capability to reconnect. What the provider suggest is to increase the timeout for that particular port to 4 hours. My question is: Is there a way to do that on ISA (still 2006)? Thanks Regards Diego R. Pietruszka
