Many NAT firewalls also have a connection timeout that affects ssh users. Setting the ServerAliveInternal (or the corresponding server configuration option) allows persistent ssh connections through such firewalls, which would otherwise expire idle connections. > > matteo filippetto <matteo.filippetto@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I need the configuration which actually suppress the hostname and the > > domain/IP on client side. client will only be prompted for password. If I'm reading this right, you want the client to be able to reach only one server. E.g., user types "go" and the "go" script runs ssh someuser@xxxxxxxxx (which is a trivial script to write). No server configuration option would be necessary or useful in that case. If you mean something else by "suppress the hostname and the domain/IP on client side", then I don't understand the question.
