I just took a look at the man page for both sshd and sshd_config, and I don't seen an option for IdleTimeout. There is: ClientAliveInterval Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has been received from the client, sshd will send a message through the encrypted channel to request a response from the client. The default is 0, indicating that these messages will not be sent to the client. This option applies to protocol version 2 only. Not sure if that's what you're looking for, though. If you're just looking to log out dle users after a certain period of time, check out: Package: autolog Priority: extra Section: admin Installed-Size: 108 Maintainer: Nicolás Lichtmaier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: i386 Version: 0.35-10.1 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.4-4), cron (>= 3.0pl1-42) Recommends: mail-transport-agent Filename: pool/main/a/autolog/autolog_0.35-10.1_i386.deb Size: 19628 MD5sum: 774bca118a2f307f612f640b281eb6ad Description: Terminates connections for idle users Autolog terminates connections considered to be idle based on a large variety of parameters.
