Hi, I am also facing the same kind of issue. I am using jboss 4.2.3. I have developing an jboss web service client. After the web service call is completed underlying TCP connection gets disconnected. I want to keep it forever since server side is being developed in gSOAP/C++ which expects same socket. Is there any configuration so that we can keep connection alive forever? Please provide some suggestion.
