autossh vs TCP resetter //at 00:49 //by abe
LUG-Camp 2007 in Interlaken is nearly over, and I’m reading my mail as usual using ssh, screen and mutt on the server. But the ssh connection resets every few minutes. According to the LUSC people (who are running the gateway) some script kiddie is running a TCP resetter somewhere in the network.
I remembered that I read about autossh in the Debian package list once a while and that it sounded cool but I had no use for it yet. Until now.
I’m writing this over the same crashing ssh connection and I’m typing without taking big notice of the quite often occurring connection resets:
autossh noone.org -t 'screen -rd'
It just works. :-)
