time of day doesn't matter. sometimes I can maintain a connection all day (very rare), but other times it hangs quite a few times a day. Most of the time it usually hangs when a screen full of data is being requested like 'ps -auxwww' or 'cat file', but other times it hangs when I'm typing on the command line. all machines are hard wired (no wifi). I've replace all CAT6 cables at least twice. It doesn't seem to disconnect because if I open a new terminal and ssh again I can see the connection on the server, but on my side it doesn't respond again. there's no real common piece that i've been able to track down. like I said this has been going on for a few years. It happens on numerous type of hardware (dell laptops and desktops, hp desktops), various flavors of RedHat based linux. Various servers (dell, hp, whitebox), various internet connections. -matt On 7/12/07, Alfred von Campe <alfred@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

I often log into my home CentOS system, and keep the connection up for an entire work day (8+ hours). I currently have some ssh sessions that have been running for at least a few weeks. When the connection hangs, are you still able to disconnect it using "~." (make sure you hit return before you try that escape sequence).
