Thank you for reply.

I'm sorry I was not clear. The part of
"On systems that support the*"  in referenced documentation confuces me.

Windows clients use Windwses starting at Windows 98.
Servers are modern Linux, Free/NetBSD and Windows computers starting at
Windows XP.
Connections are made over public internet, clients are connecting to 5432
port in server.

Will TCP_KEEP* options work wihout issure in this configuraton?.
If I create production application which relies on TCP_KEEP* settings will
this work OK?
Can TCP_KEEP* blocked by ISP or by routers/ADSL/GPRS modems ?
I'm asking so because there was recently message in npgsql mailing list that
TCP_KEEP* are not working.
I tried google little but havent found any information about using those
options to resolve idle
connection kill issue in configuraton above.

Andrus.
