I noticed some entries in my mysql error-log file which are created by fud forum.

Aborted connection <number> to db: 'forum' user: '<username>' host: 'localhost' (Got timeout reading communication packets)

How can I make them disappear?

Thanks, Mike

Are you using persistant connections, if so turning them of may solve the problem.

It occurs for the following reason, when they are on each Apache child which has been used to serve a FUDforum request keeps an open MySQL connection. If that apache child did not serve a page in a long time eventually the MySQL timeout is reached and MySQL kills the connection.

Is there (where?) a possibility to set that timeout to a higher value?
Does this cause any security problems?

No, as far as I know this does not cause security problems. You can specify your own timeout value to your MySQL server via the 'wait_timeout' option you pass to safe_mysqld script, which starts the MySQL deamon.
Of course you need root access to do so, so unless you got your own server you will not be able to do it yourself.

Read the documentation inside httpd.conf. That file has explanation of most options, MaxKeepAliveRequests is NOT it however. MySQL documentation can be found on www.mysql.com
