this is most likely an SSH setup issue. Both the client and server
in ssh can set timeouts.
in your client setup file (e.g. /etc/ssh/ssh_config) you can say
ServerAliveInterval 300
and while you're at it, also do
ForwardX11 yes
There is also a server option
KeepAlive yes

I am having the following problem: I connect to my

Connection reset by peer
Connection to soleus.umd.edu closed.
This is very annoying as I need to run jobs that take
hours.
My collegue connects to the same machine and doesn't
have this problem. I don't remember having it before
-- it seems to have started when I changed routers.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
