On 6/1/2018 10:31 AM, Germain Le Chapelain : The behavior looks normal.
Quoting from the autossh man page: "Startup behaviour If the ssh session fails with an exit status of 1 on the very first try, autossh 1.' will assume that there is some problem with syntax or the connection setup, and will exit rather than retrying; 2.' There is a "starting gate" time. If the first ssh process fails within the first few seconds of being started, autossh assumes that it never made it "out of the starting gate", and exits. This is to handle initial failed authentication, connection, etc. This time is 30 seconds by default, and can be adjusted (see the AUTOSSH_GATETIME environment variable below). If AUTOSSH_GATETIME is set to 0, then both behaviours are disabled: there is no "starting gate", and autossh will restart even if ssh fails on the first run with an exit status of 1. The "starting gate" time is also set to 0 when the -f flag to autossh is used. " -- R.
