note, if a future version of ssh package has a modified sshd_config file (possibly a new setting being added, or one being changed), and the user does 'apt-get upgrade', they will then be prompted on what to do because the package system notices a change to this file. prompts on 'apt-get upgrade' are generally not desireable as people mostly expect these things to work unattended, and in this case the user didn't do anything themselves to justify this.
Also note, and I could be wrong, that Ubuntu's stock sshd_config has 'TCPKeepAlive yes' as the default value. It would seem that this should be enough to keep the session alive? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1188610 Title: sshd_config is modified/replaced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/walinuxagent/+bug/1188610/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
