CSS keepalives for Oracle forms server

Question

I'm trying to set up load balancing for oracle forms server and having issues with finding working keepalive method.
If I use uri keepalive, Oracle forms server crashes within a couple of minuites. TCP doesn't work either
service Ora-forms:9000
ip address 192.168.0.34
port 9000
keepalive type http
keepalive uri "/alive.gif"
keepalive frequency 30
It works for Oracle web server tho.
What keepalive do you guy use for Forms server?

Here is what a script looks like using the "graceful" close approach..Graceful is at the bottom.

echo "Usage: ap-kal-fin ip address.'"
exit script 1
endbranch
! Connect to the remote Host
set EXIT_MSG "Connect: Failed to connect to ${ARGS}[1]"
socket connect host ${ARGS}[1] port 80 tcp 2000
