I had a 15min timeout problem like this which took weeks to solve. I found
more timers than I could shake a stick at before I found the right one.
Unfortunately I can't remember the solution right now.
Julian is this same as
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time
whichdefaults to 7200? If so this is not the cause of the 15 min timeout.
