I wrote a program in vb6 that connects to a db mysql 5. I installed the
program on clients in the local network and on clients that connects to db
by public ip by internet.
In local network it works perfectly but by internet it disconnect to db
after a timeout (maybe 60s) when the program doesn't communicate with db.
Is a server problem (win 2000 server) or a db problem? Can I increase the
timeout?

Thanks

bye,
