We had a similiar problems with keeping oracle connections active for our
application. The solution is not on the pix but on the Host side. Like
someone said you want the TCP connections to timeout, otherwise you are
going to kill the performance of your PIX box. We just configured the
solaris Oracle server to send a keepalive packet every hr to keep the oracle
connection active. Then for the pix we configured 90 minutes for a timeout
period. Problem solved. Oracle connections stay up and other connections
get torn down normally after 90 minutes of inactivity.

This will probably need to be done by the tcp/ip application on the server
you need to keep connected to; persistance. Local director can do this but
there is a max, and it's not for ever.
