Firing people for violating the 5 minute rule seems a tad extreme. If there is indeed a company policy regarding the 5 minute idle window you and you intend to roll forward with a connection kill script then also make screen or tmux available. In my experience people tend to be more accepting of connection outages if they can reconnect to where the were when they were last on.

I've checked the following options from sshd_config but none seems to fit my needs : TCPKeepAlive ClientAliveCountMax ClientAliveInterval Basically, I'm trying to defeat the use of the following client-side option: ServerAliveInterval 5 I'm afraid all I've hit now is dead ends. Has anyone ever had the same requirements before and, perhaps, found a solution to this ? _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
