Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi everyone, I'm just wondering what possible firewall rules (if any) could cause problems with random SSH disconnections. I'm trying to troubleshoot my situation here, and I'm unsure if it has to do with failing routers on the internet somewhere, or my own configuration. The situatino is basically that I'm able to connect via SSH to my box remotely, but I'll get disconnected after a varying amount of time. Is it possible that a firewall rule is causing this? I wouldn't think so..but I could be wrong. Anyone else have any ideas about this? someone else mentioned to try turning "KeepAlive" to off to see what happens, but that didn't solve anything.
