I'm not certain. Consider client running Fedora (without the patch) connecting to server running Debian. I think it should be upstream if it not disrupts other systems. Citation from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=517778 = Comment #7 From Daniel Berrange 2009-08-19 11:06:04 EDT ------- = = virt-manager runs netcat on the remote end of the SSH connection. In theory = closing the FD should cause netcat to see the EOF, and exit, causing SSH to = exit. I reckon netcat is not behaving nicely though and thus holding open the = connection. The Debian netcat has certainly got such bugs, and Fedora one has = patched many bugs like that. We should explicitly kill() the SSH pid. This is probably about how should netcat behave and which implementations (patches) are correct. I don't know. I think adding `-q 0' for nc execution upstream should not hurt in either case.
