Package: openssh-client Version: 1:4.2p1-5 Severity: wishlist The OpenSSH client should have an option to open an independent master connection automatically when there isn't one already, and close it when the last slave ssh connection closes.
The problem with "ControlMaster auto" is that closing the first ssh connection (i.e. the master one) closes all the slave connections. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.13.4-20051012 Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages openssh-client depends on: ii adduser 3.77 Add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2. 1.4.58 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.13.11.0.1 package maintenance system for Deb ii libc6 2.3.5-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcomerr2 1.38-2 common error description library ii libedit2 2.9.cvs.20050518-2.2 BSD editline and history libraries ii libkrb53 1.3.6-5 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libselinux1 1.26-1 SELinux shared libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8a-2 SSL shared libraries ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-6 compression library - runtime openssh-client recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
