RE: get disconnected

Some things to check:

1) Some network gear will terminate idle tcp connections.  If your
session is idle for some time before if gets disconnected and if you
have different gear between 1 and 3 then you do between 1 and 2, this
very well could be the cause.

2) Are you seeing anything in your system log files?

3) If possible, running sshd in debug or verbose mode might help isolate
the problem.  You can either take the main sshd down and start it up in
debug mode or you can fire up a new sshd on a different port (sshd -p
2222 -De or sshd -p 2222 -d -d -d) and watch the output while connecting
(ssh -p 2222) from system 1.

man sshd for more info on the debug options.

Subject: get disconnected

Hi,

I am using three computers (say 1, 2 and 3) all running RHEL 3. I
connect 2 and 3 from 1 using SSH.
But after few minutes and sometimes after few hours (the time is random)
3 gets disconnected while 2 remains ok.

What could be the resone for this?

Thank you very much for your help.

Manoj
