   |Hi, does anybody know how to keep alive a connection, I want to
   |keep the connection running even if the user doesn't do anything
   |for a long time.

If your remote sshd is from recent OpenSSH, how about setting 
'ClientAliveInterval' in your remote '/etc/ssh/sshd_config'?

'man ssh' says as follow,

     ClientAliveInterval
             Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has
             been received from the client, sshd will send a message through
             the encrypted channel to request a response from the client.  The
             default is 0, indicating that these messages will not be sent to
             the client.  This option applies to protocol version 2 only.

JSch has not implemented keep-alive by client side, 
but it will not be so difficult to implement it.

   |actually another question. how to resolve a symbolic link?

What means 'a symbolic link'?
