Thanks for your reply.
The only things in the server's default login file which are uncommented:
PASSREQ=YES
ALTSHELL=YES
SYSLOG=YES
Also, as I mentioned in my first port, when I telnet using putty from any Windows machine or even from any other unix box, the connection stays open for days. Its when I telnet/rlogin from my solaris desktop that the connections timeout. So I think it has to do something with my desktop, rather than the servers.
And yes, this happens for all the servers. I mean that if I have 4 telnet connections opened with 4 different servers, they all timeout after few hours.
I am not able to keep my windows open over the night because of this.
Thanks in adv

NAME
ProxyChains - redirect connections through proxy servers
SYNTAX
proxychains <program>
DESCRIPTION
This program forces any tcp connection made by any given tcp client to follow through proxy (or proxy chain). It is a kind of proxifier.
It acts like sockscap / premeo / eborder driver (intercepts TCP calls).
This version (2.0) supports SOCKS4, SOCKS5 and HTTP CONNECT proxy servers. Auth-types: socks - "user/pass" , http - "basic".
When to use it ?
1) When the only way to get "outside" from your LAN is through proxy server.
2) When you are behind restrictive firewall which filters outgoing connections to some ports.
3) When you want to use two (or more) proxies in chain:
like: your_host <--> proxy1 <--> proxy2 <--> target_host
4) When you want to "proxify" some programs with no proxy support built-in (like telnet).
5) When you dont want to pay for eBorder / premeo socks driver :)
Some cool features:
* This program can mix different proxy types in the same chain
like: your_host <-->socks5 <--> http <--> socks4 <--> http <--> target_host
* Different chaining options supported like: take random proxy from the list. or : chain proxies in exact order or :
chain proxies in dynamic order (smart exclude dead proxies from chain)
*You can use it with any TCP client application, even network scanners. yes, yes - you can make portscan via proxy (or chained proxies) for
example with Nmap scanner by fyodor (www.insecure.org/nmap).
proxychains nmap -sT -PO -p 80 -iR (find some webservers through proxy)
NOTE: to run suid/sgid programs(like ssh) through proxychains you have to be root
FILES
proxychains looks for config file in following order:
./proxychains.conf
$(HOME)/.proxychains/proxychains.conf
/etc/proxychains.conf
see more in /etc/proxychains.conf
EXAMPLES
To run this program the standard way type:
proxychains telnet targethost.com
in this example it will run telnet through proxy(or chained proxies) specified by proxychains.conf
