I recently fsckd my old RedHat 7.3 install. Luckily none of my data was lost and I installed Knoppix on the machine. The only problem I'm having is with SSH. Everything works fine but if I leave the connection idle for a time and then start typing there will be a delay before any data is sent to the receiving machine of a little over ten seconds. Needless to say this is quite annoying. I've looked through all the ssh and sshd options and even checked my old RedHat config files (didn't have the issue with RedHat) but haven't been able to determine the cause. There shouldn't be any latency since both machines are on the same network. This doesn't happen on other remote machines that I've tried. Both boxes are pretty identical in configuration (both Knoppix ) with the same version of ssl and OpenSSH_3.6.1p2 Debian 1:3.6.1p2-9, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0. Any ideas?
