Title: read_fd_with_timeout failed for client
Post by: REDACTED on July 02, 2015, 10:53:28 PM

Hi all,

192.168.1.7 - Windows 7
192.168.1.129 - Windows XP
192.168.1.81 - Windows 8.1
All in the same workgroup

Server & Gateway: Linux SME-9 up to date, as a firewall to Internet

I have a persistent problem. I have those messages repeating exactly  every 10 minutes for all Windows machines:

It took me a long time to find out that if I uninstall Avast, the problem go away.

I installed Wireshark and the machine all try to contack an Avast server every 10 minutes.

On the SME server I ajusted all the timeouts for a long time to activate with no result.

Any suggestions appreciated,

André

Thank you Pondus for your response.

This is my setup at home, this is not a business, it is personnal.
