SSH client Keepalive Options

metallica1973 · 11-21-2008, 10:43 AM

Instead of modifying the /etc/ssh/sshd_config

with

PHP Code:



TCPKeepAlive yes 
 
ClientAliveInterval 60

I would prefer to do this at the command line. Can one guide me in the right direction?

PHP Code:



ssh -p 12022 -o TCPKeepAlive yes ClientAliveInterval 60 -L 5900:localhost:5900 test1@test.net

I cant seem to get the option right!

This syntax works for me on redhat:

Code:

ssh -p 12022 -o TCPKeepAlive=yes -o ClientAliveInterval=60 -L 5900:localhost:5900 test1@test.net

The 'ClientAliveInterval' isn't supported though. Guess it's an Ubuntu thing.
