SSH-Autologout
Please help...I was wondering how do you get ssh to timeout and close connection after 20 minutes of inactivity. I am hoping to...stop those users from leaving a ssh session open while they are not using it... I am using suse pro and bash.
Also, if you can help, what is the best way to increase the cipher to aes256? Thanks in advance for your help. |
From the sshd_config manpage
ClientAliveInterval Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has been received from the client, sshd will send a message through the encrypted channel to request a response from the client. The default is 0, indicating that these messages will not be sent to the client. This option applies to protocol version 2 only. In your sshd config, add the line ClientAliveInterval 1200 #in seconds Protocol 2 #Doesn't work on protocol 1 Then restart sshd and you are off and running. For the AES, once again in sshd_config (normally in /etc/ssh) Add this line CIPHERS aes256-cbc #you can add more options here, see man sshd_config for more Restart sshd and again, everything is good :) |
thanks for your help!
