I dont know how to put this question...sorry.. What would be better. To enable them or keep them disabled. Cause there might be lots of users and what if a few connections keep there alive wasting resources while not being used, instead if the options enabled, they would be disconnected, but would this options interfere in sshd performance? I put those options only as an example; if you know of others that i should enable please dont hesitate to share it ;) Hope you guys get the concept... Thanks a lot as always and have a nice one... Cheers, Agustin
