Me again.....

Why is my ssh session timing out? Local/remote, it doesnt matter. Only on this machine.

is the box openbsd? by default the shell may kick you out after a certain amount of idle time. I dont think ssh should do it though.

Sorry,

FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #0

[opus]

I use Bash and just tried with CSH, timed out.

[bsdjunkie]

in bash, try setting this variable

TMOUT=0

[opus]

I have also done sshd -ddd -p 22 and I changed syslogd to write all errors. Nothing showed up when it timed out. I have also used ssh -2 with the same results.

Of course, if I keep trafshow running or something, it doesnt time out. It is timing out due tono packets being sent. What are my KeepAlive options, that arent on by default?
Bash default is TMOUT=0, isnt it? Not even sure how to set it at this point.

[opus]

Resolved.

Added to ssh_config:

ServerAliveInterval 120
ServerAliveCountMax 10
TCPKeepAlive yes
