Kurt Anderson came up with the following solution last year.
"I might have an answer. (I didn't come up with this myself, I did some
additional searching online last night.)
CFGTCP
Option #3
TCP keep alive . . . . . . . . . TCPKEEPALV
The default value for TCPKEEPALV on our system was 120 (minutes). I
changed it to 5, and so far so good. I just sent an unrelated message to
this list and it occurred to me that I did leave RDi alone for a good hour
and came back to it without issues.
I'll keep an eye on it for the next week or so and report back if I feel
the VPN disconnect issue is truly gone.
-Kurt"

I got a hit on 'keep alive' by searching RDi help - but it seemed more of a
general jdbc thing than related to the RDi connection . . .
I was able to work on RDi for a couple hours last night through a vpn - but
I think our network team has 'tuned' our vpn to avoid disconnects . . .

Subject: [WDSCI-L] RDi 9.1--> Losing connection
Hi,
When working remotely, my internet connection goes down with RDI 9.1 only.
My Green Screen stay up 100%.
Is there a way to change the "TIMEOUT" on RDi 9.1 to keep the connection
alive?
It is forcing me to use reliable SEU <Yuck!> on Green screen, since that
stay up when working remotely...
I am using Cisco ASA 5505 (Adaptive Security Appliance)
Seems to work great on everything except RDI...
I welcome any tips to keep the connection up. I am hoping to change a
timeout setting, but I have been unable to find it inside of RDI...
