Can't logout ssh-session

Sometimes when I do "exit" when sshed to another PC in LAN, ssh session will not exit. The cursor just goes next line and nothing happens. I have to press Ctrl+C. This doesn't happen always - from time to time and there doesn't seem to be any definite reason for this. Help me to fix it please.

The supported escapes (assuming the default `~' ) are:
~. Disconnect.
What if I entered "~" twice and ssh doesn't accept this combination any more?

  • Can I set idle ssh sessions to be logged out?

    I'd like to log off ssh sessions that have been idle for too long, but I am unsure where to set this. would it be TMOUT in /etc/profiles or in each user's shell profiles?

    First of all i guess its useful to mention that there are no idle timeout in ssh itself, so you would indeed have to solve it in another way.
    You could set the TMOUT variable in the /etc/profile, there are two problems here however;
    1) not all shell implements it (bash, ksh, zsh does)
    2) the user can easily change / remove it.
    For tcsh i belive the syntax would be set autologout=xx .
    I belive there are small deamons around which logs out users for you if they idle for to long, but i can't find anything among my bookmarks.
    If you have a firewall perhaps you could probably make it do this for you as well.

  • SSH Session Logging

    is there anyway to turn on global SSH session logging?
    as in log exactly what is being done by any logged in SSH user? i know there are log levels for SSH in ssh_config but short of trying each level out i didn't see mention of a level that explicitly logged full sessions.
    how about per user? i suppose i do only use 1-2 users.
    thanks!

    Can you clarify a bit what you would like done? Do you want to log connections, logins and logouts or do you want to log SSH session activity i.e. commands are entered and what not? If its the latter you will not be able to do that will syslog. You may want to look into system accounting. For more on system accounting man "accton", "sa", "lastcomm". If you are just looking for logins and logouts the last command should point you in the right direction.
    Hope that helps!

  • Screen Sharing and SSH sessions freeze occasionally on multiple mac minis

    I have 28 Mac Minis at work. With such a large number of minis, I obviously can't have a monitor attached to each of them so I've got them plugged into a network switch and access them via Screen Sharing (both via regular Screen Sharing and ARD) and SSH sessions.
    A few of them seem to suffer from intermittent problems however. I'll be using Screen Sharing when the session freezes. It may unfreeze eventually, but I can also usually just quit out and re-connect and it will be unfrozen. The same thing happens when I'm connected via SSH, it will freeze and I won't be able to type in any more commands.
    I need help troubleshooting (or if anyone knows what could be causing this, that'd be cool too).
    I've tried connecting from both a Mac Pro on the wired network and a MacBook Pro on the wireless network. The freezing seems to only happen on certain Mac Minis as well.
    I've tried switching network cables from a Mac Mini that doesn't suffer from this problem with one that does and nothing changed.
    I also thought it might be a bandwidth issue at first, despite being a gigabit switch connected via cat6 to the rest of our gigabit network, but even when no significant bandwidth is being used, the freezing still occurs.
    One more thing I want to test is the connection between the switch all these Mac Minis is plugged into and one of the other switches that all our other network traffic goes through. I didn't set it up myself so I fear that it might be an old, damaged cable or something. Failing that, I have no idea what the problem could be, which is why I'm posting here.
    So, does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Or any other ideas for troubleshooting the problem? Thanks.
    (They're all running 10.6.8, and range from Mid-2007 to 2009 models).

    It would be in the system log. However, the next step would be to safe-boot in order to eliminate third-party system modifications. That goes for both client and server. If you can reproduce the problem in safe mode, then you probably have a network issue. Take everything offline except one client and one server, and test.

  • SSL / AnyConnect can't get SSH to work

    Hi,
    I have a working SSL vpn setup on my 5505. Once logged in ,I can use rdp, http...and so on. However, when I try to use ssh sessions to my internal hosts, I can't connect. I just get the login prompt and after a few seconds the status line goes red and displays "not connected"
    I get the same error message on Windows, Linux and Mac.

    Hi,
    Is this what you mean? Is it possible to upgrade the ssh "plug-in" on the asa 5505 separately to get it to work?

  • ACE 4710. Unable to clear ssh sessions

    Hi.
    Once in the CLI of an ACE 4710, using the command "clear ssh session id" I am unable to clear/kill any of the remote ssh sessions established.
    According to the administration guide, the "clear ssh .." command must clear the sessions, but it does not, or maybe I am missing something?

  • Capture ssh sessions in the background

    Hi together,
    i would like to capture all ssh-session (hidden in the background) on a solaris 10 server.
    I hade some tries with /usr/bin/script -a <somewhere> in the .bash_profile but this is not what i need. e.g. "exit" exits the script and not the session.
    do you have some clever idea how to solve the issue?
    i can�t find any helpful tool.
    chears, claudius

    No, i have a System where some users get the possibility to access the server by ssh. To have a control, what the user did - and do have a verification when he did something wrong - i would like to have a possibility to see what he did within the session (e.g. editing a configfile) I had some tries with "script" and other little OS-tools but, i was�nt able to find a perfect sollution.
    Perfect meens - it�works and it is not vissible for the user.

  • How to reconnect to a disconnected remote ssh session on solaris 10

    hi all
    How to reconnect to a disconnected remote ssh session on solaris 10
    is there a way to accomplish this

    No, there's not.
    A common solution for this is to get a copy of 'screen'. After connecting via ssh (or any other protocol), you can start a "screen" session. If you get disconnected (or disconnect intentionally), you can later come back on the machine and bring your existing "screen" session back.

  • SSH sessions over Putty die unexpectedly & commandline entry is slow

    I have a Sun Ultra-60 running Solaris 9 at patch level 118558-05. Users of this server report that their ssh sessions over Putty to this server die unexpectedly anywhere from one to two times per week. The users are usually in a vim session at the time editing php files for the website hosted on the system. Another problem reported is that the user's command line input slows dramatically and they must wait for the server to complete the line they were typing prior to proceeding.
    I cannot find the source of this problem. To date, the following is what I have tried in my troubleshooting efforts.
    1) ptdiag - reports no hardware failures
    2) /var/adm/messages - reports no issues relating to the problem mentioned above.
    3) swap -l - the server has plenty of swap and shows no need for additional swap space Here is the output from swap -l
    swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
    /dev/vx/dsk/swapvol 213,6 16 8389632 8358176
    I should also mention that /tmp is not full and is currently only at 2% of it's capacity.
    4) ndd shows that the link speed, duplex, etc. are correct at 100Mbps full-duplex.
    5) System uptime is at 337 days and the uptime command currently shows the following load: load average: 0.12, 0.11, 0.09
    6) vxdisk list shows the two internal mirrored disks as being online and no errors. iostat -En shows no soft or hard errors on the two disks
    7) This server only has two users and the main applications in use are mysql and apache.
    8) I have upgraded to the latest version of the vim editor and the problem still persists. I have also had the users upgrade to the latest version of Putty and to turn on the logging feature of Putty which hasn't revealed any information as to why the sessions are unexpectedly terminating.
    9) I have checked the /etc/default/login setting for the "TIMEOUT" variable which is commented out. I also checked the users profiles and verified that there are no timeout variables defined.
    10) Here is my netstat -i output:
    Name Mtu Net/Dest Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Collis Queue
    lo0 8232 loopback localhost 52375982 0 52375982 0 0 0
    qfe0 1500 servername servername 2319804623 29884 1493848177 0 0 0
    qfe1 1500 servernamea servernamea 231550668 0 3694 0 0 0
    qfe2 1500 servernameb servernameb 40944152 1 65630146 0 0 0
    Some of these numbers look high, but I don't see any collisions.
    Any help would be appreciated. If additional commands need to be run, please advise and I will gladly post.
    Thanks much for any assistance.

    Hi Darren,
    The user's vim session dies when the users are actively typing.
    As for there being a firewall or NAT device between the workstation and the server, yes, there is. The users are in one building and the server is housed in a datacenter in a separate building. The users do not have this issue with out other Solaris 8 and Solaris 10 servers...only this one particular server. A traceroute to the server takes only 5 hops and returns quickly.
    As for the logs, I just checked /var/adm/messages and it is reporting the following types of messages over and over.:
    [ID 317013 daemon.notice] bpcd[11746] from some IP
    I think these messages are generated from Veritas Netbackup which is administered by a separate team than what I am on, but I can have them investigate.

  • Logging all SSH sessions? (Package to do it?)

    heya,
    I was wondering if there was a foolproof way of logging all commands executed via SSH? (i.e. logging all remote SSH sessions).
    I know you can do it manually via "script", or replacing the login shell, but I was hoping for perhaps a program/service, that did it automatically. (Just like how etckeeper managers all your configuration files).
    Also, I'd need it to work with all logins, including password-based ones as well.
    Cheers,
    Victor

    On Solaris, you would probably use BSM.  A search on google for "bsm linux" reveals some alternatives for Linux which you could try.

  • LMS 3.2 doesn't terminated SSH sessions on ACE

    Hi all,

  • Can't connect via Screen Share or Web Server, but can ping and ssh

    Bit of an odd problem here.
    My Mountain Lion Mac Pro (called "Trogdor" for convenience) is connected to my work university network. I can ping it from anywhere-- elsewhere on the network, from home behind a firewall. Can connect over ssh from everywhere. I can also connect to other computers (on the same network or at home behind a firewall) from Trogdor via ssh, Screen Sharing, etc.
    But I can't Screen Share into Trogdor, and I can't connect to Trogdor's built-in web server, either system-wide (in /Library/WebServer) or for my username (~/Sites). (I can connect to the web server from Trogdor.)
    Note that I can do both of these for other computers on the same network (same subnet, etc), so it's not a network issue. I can't do these from anywhere: same network or from home. I have this problem whether I use Trogdor's hostname or its IP address. (I can look up its hostname using the IP address with the "host" tool in Terminal, and vice versa.)
    So it sounds like a port issue, right? Except I don't think I've ever messed with my port settings directly. How do I diagnose the problem? Should I scan my ports? Can I return port settings to default?
    Thanks!

  • How can I set a Session bean timeout

    Hello !
    How can I set a Session bean to time out eg. 48 hours ?
    Thanks
    Uiloq Slettemark

    For stateful session beans you can use the timeout attribute in the orion-ejb-jar e.g.
    <session-deployment timeout=1800 ..>
    this is specified in seconds and Default Value: 30 (minutes)
