Hello,

I've been experiencing severe = latency when=20 ssh'ing to my FreeBSD box. When I attempt to ssh from my Win98 box = via=20 Putty or from another FreeBSD or OpenBSD box I usually have to wait = a=20 couple of minuets (if I'm lucky) to connect. Often I can=20 not connect at all. When I'm finally log into the = FreeBSD box=20 everything looks ok. The sshd daemon is running and the only = traces=20 of a problem are found in my /var/log/messages. Here's what I = see in=20 the messages file:

Feb 28 15:46:40 blue sshd[11039]: = fatal: Read from=20 socket failed: Connection reset by peer
Feb 28 16:59:45 blue = sshd[11123]:=20 fatal: Timeout before authentication for 192.168.1.9.

Feb 28 17:07:02 blue sshd[11145]: = fatal: Timeout=20 before authentication for 192.168.1.9.

Sometimes I don't see these errors as = well. =20 Currently I'm running FreeBSD 4.5, = but I had the=20 same problem before when I was running FreeBSD 4.4. The weird = thing is=20 that a reboot seems to take care of the problem, but as soon as the = uptime=20 reaches a couple of days I run into the same problem of not being able = to ssh to=20 the box.

This is the version of = ssh:

Has anyone experienced this = problem? Any help=20 would be greatly appreciated.
