Allen Wittenauer commented on DIRSTUDIO-695:
--------------------------------------------

I was doing a search for something related to the problem I'm having and stumbled upon this issue.  So I'm going to unzombie it a bit...

Our VPN connections will actively drop socket connections to certain data centers if they are idle for X minutes/hours/whatevers.  In the case of Directory Studio, if one forgets this, the client clearly thinks it is still connected and operations to any LDAP servers basically hang for some incredibly long time out.  

Instead of having a keep alive, why doesn't dir studio just use a smaller socket timeout and automatically re-open the connection?

> There is a very annoing issue with connections. If I leave connection open for a long time open it gots frozen and it takes a long time to revive it.
> Maybe it is possible to add some feature to connection properties like "keepAlive" or something so that it is alway very quick to respond.
