I think it would be 1 of 2 places that might be doing this: A. The server itself, maybe sshd_config, or some pam file maybe? B. A firewall device on the network -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Anne Moore Sent: Tuesday, 4 December 2007 12:24 p.m. To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: automatic disconnects very troubling Hi All Whenever my users connect to my Red Hat Enterprise 4 system, they are automatically disconnected after 1 minute of inactivity. This happens no matter if they are connected to our Oracle instance or SSH or Telnet, or anything. It's like the server "hangs-up" on them after no activity for a minute or two. I ran tcpdump during and received this error on the disconnect: 17:20:21.362159 IP 192.168.8.90.56141 > myhost1.rdm.loc.ssh: . ack 233 win 33303 <nop,nop,timestamp 2469825 98100123> I'm stumped! Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? Thank you for your help!
