As some of you may know, Red Hat backported the ControlPersist functionality to the OpenSSH version that ships with RHEL6.

This is terrific since RHEL users can now use this technique to speed up Ansible.

However, after some testing it seems to fail for the very first connection. What happens is that the first connection, when the persistent connection has not been set up yet, fails. Any subsequent connection seems to work fine, but obviously this fails to work properly with Ansible.

I think this is a bug, has anyone tested this ? Or am I doing something wrong here ?

I noticed this after updating to one of the later test packages from the bugzilla ticket where this was requested (it did not occur initially). I also thought it might be something peculiar to my environment and didn't notice it soon enough to bring it up in the ticket, unfortunately.

I haven't installed the final update yet (on CentOS), but I was hoping that it might have corrected the problem. At least I planned to test the latest package before considering it a package bug.

Knowing it seems to affect more than me, I imagine a new bug report is in order to resolve the problem.

It is fantastic to have ControlPersist on EL6 though. ;)
