To make sure that the changes are made in the right file, I went all the way don to the TCP_FIN_TIMEOUT file, and saw that the changes were there.

I'm new in this list. I hope you can help me and I can help to other
from now.
I'm trying reduce the timeout of TIME_WAIT tcp connections status, but I
don't get it.
I set the value of /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fin_timeout to 15:
echo 15 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fin_timeout
I think that this should be sufficient, but the SO continue kill
connections after 60 seconds of TIME_WAIT, instead of 15...
Can you help me?

Hi,
I've been trying some wget options to download
"http://archive.kernel.org/fedora-archive/core/updates/5/i386/" (only the
contents of i386)
to my current directory but it only downloads index.html and robots.txt
regarding TCP_FIN_TIMEOUT
