I have Woody installed on an Ultra 5. Frequently SSH sessions to this machine seem to "lockup". Specifically, I have observed the following:
SSH connections to the U5 box using SSH Protocol 2 almost always fail before the key exchange can complete. With SSH Protocol 1 I can login and work for a few minutes, but the connection still freezes after a little while. Using a 3Com NIC rather than the built-in NIC, the problem does not go away. I tried to connect to my network using a different network jack, but the problem persisted. Although one SSH session may freeze, I can successfully open new SSH sessions (ie. without having to reboot.) As best I can tell, no error messages are produced in the log files when the SSH session freezes. Using kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u instead of kernel-image-2.4.19-sun4u does not seem to help. I would be grateful if anyone could tell me what might be the source of my problems. Thank you, Kristjan Onu
