SUB LINUX BUG SERVER PROBLEM

hi

I am facing problem while configuring SSH Bug SERVER in linux.
The exact problem is this that---- SSH BUg SERVER is with us and When client tries to connect it from outside not locally then connection got established but breaks after some time.

I tried to short out the problem but all in vain.

What can be the possible reason and the solution for it.

I checked every configuration.

Recently i had changed our router can this be a reason.

If yes then what can be done in this case.

Hi.

It's the router dropping the connection after a timeout. I'd take a look in the router's documentation to see if there's a keep-alive option which can be enabled.

Hi again.

There's a couple of potential issues:
1) There may not be a keepalive option on your router, or the timeout may not be configurable (I'm not familiar with Linksys routers, so I don't know).
2) The problem may be at the client's side.

My home Netgear ADSL router drops any quiet connections after a matter of minutes, and it's not configurable so I have to run a spinner in the shell to keep the my SSH connection going. It's not pretty, but it works.

Thanks Dave

YOU said you have to run " a spinner in your shell" to keep you SSH connection alive. whats this ? can you send some detail about this.
