--- Comment #7 from Damien Miller <d...@mindrot.org> --- If you were relying on an accidental, unreliable and undocumented behaviour for security then you always destined to have a bad time. ClientAliveCountMax=0 *never* worked as a reliable inactivity timeout - ServerAliveInterval or a number of other things that caused non-session traffic could keep a connection alive indefinitely. A security control that appears to work but silently fails under common conditions is worse than useless. We've since added explicit, documented and supported inactivity timeout mechanisms (ChannelTimeout and UnusedConnectionTimeout), so the previous accidental behaviour of ClientAliveCountMax won't be coming back. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
