I am using putty to connect up to my ssh server running on RH 9. I am

my
interface to talk to SSH. Has anyone experienced this?
I've had a user with a 2.4 Ghz phone ring and kill blip their wireless connection which kills a perment connection like ssh/telnet - they had to get a 900Mhz phone.
Also, 2 other users have cable modem service and sometimes their connection drops - not sure if it's a DHCP thinkg that the provider is forcing renewal or what... There has been suspicion that cable companies purposely trip connections just to disconnect long running programs/servers at home.
Try using "screen" after longing in via ssh. If ssh dies, then screen will not kill your processes - you can relog back in and reattach to your last session. I'd be using screen if it weren't for the fact that it happens to mess up the terminal emulation a bit.

I've also had this happening (ssh connection dropping) due to the apm daemon running, and sleeping the nic card.
