tcp timeouts
tcp timeouts causing strange errors
The recent stateless rules caused problems for localhost connections between Pound and Zope on gambit. FreeBSD was apparently terminating connections, before transaction was completed resulting in "Internal Server Errors".
To prevent this, I added localhost connections as stateful rules, and where possible converted it to unix sockets.
The same problem was occuring with ssh and imaps, where I would eventually be disconnected or get a timeout message.
The latest revision of the ipfw server rules here.
