I've been putting one of our new servers through it's paces today. It's running RHEL6.4 and all of the testing is occurring from a secondary server, which is going in via SSH to the RHEL server.
Quite often, it's failing the testing with the following error message:
Code:
SSH session not active
From what I understand, this usually indicates some kind of SSH timeout. In response to this, I uncommented the
ClientAliveInterval in /etc/ssh/sshd_config and gave it a value of 400.
Unfortunately this hasn't solved this issue hence why I'm writing this thread. Could anyone suggest something I may have missed? This is particularly frustrating as we have another server, running 6.3, which works flawlessly and I can't see any difference in configuration.
On my latest run, the following was outputted (EDIT: On the client): 10054 which apparently means "Connection reset by peer", or "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host". /var/log/message (EDIT: On the server) is listing: "imuxsock lost X messages from PID x due to rate-limiting" and "imuxsock begins to drop messages from pid X due to rate-limiting".
