10/10 Does sshd on soda have an idle timeout? Or is it something
that I need to configure on my client? I keep getting
"connection reset by peer" messages after about 10 minutes or
so.
\_ There's an option in ssh that lets you do keepalives. You
might also be behind a firewall that timesout too quickly.
\_ Yeah, I'm aware of keepalives. It doesn't seem to help.
The firewall that I'm behind is a simple Linux ipchains
one. I don't *think* it has any idle timeouts. Weird.
\_ ipchains masquerading has a 15-minute timeout by default.
You can raise it to (say) one day: "ipchains -MS 86400 0 0".
See "man ipchains" for details.
\_ Thanks for the info. Is that 15 minutes default
timeout listed somewhere in the man page? I didn't see it.
\_ It's not in the manpage, but it is mentioned in
/usr/doc/HOWTO/IPCHAINS-HOWTO (section 4.1.5).
\_ Soda's keepalives are currently set for 24 hours, so if you're
getting hozed after ten minutes, somethings fucked on your
end. |
