[Bug 50702] Re: openssh-server: Manual page sshd_config is missing KeepAlive description
I've committed a documentation fix to the Debian package, so we'll get this at the next merge; thanks for the suggestion. For now I think I'll avoid anything more invasive like syslogging the deprecation. ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Colin Watson Status: Confirmed = Fix Committed -- openssh-server: Manual page sshd_config is missing KeepAlive description https://launchpad.net/bugs/50702 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm that this is the case, but a low priority / wishlist. I do think it's important to have however, as it's something that I had to search on the internet about to fix. ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed = Confirmed -- openssh-server: Manual page sshd_config is missing KeepAlive description https://launchpad.net/bugs/50702 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 50702] Re: openssh-server: Manual page sshd_config is missing KeepAlive description
The option is called TCPKeepAlive now; see http://bugs.debian.org/349896. I suggest changing this in your configuration file. The version I'll merge from Debian shortly fixes the configuration file for new installs, although unfortunately I've never had a good mechanism for updating the configuration file on upgrades. -- openssh-server: Manual page sshd_config is missing KeepAlive description https://launchpad.net/bugs/50702 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 50702] Re: openssh-server: Manual page sshd_config is missing KeepAlive description
Thanks for the update Colin, I was unaware that it had changed. I'm wondering if it would be helpful to at least display this in the help files for users looking for the option and / or possibly log it to syslog that the option is now depreciated? Eg: man: Keepalive: Depreciated, please see TCPKeepAlive below syslog: [OpenSSH] Option KeepAlive is now depreciated, please read the help files and replace this with TCPKeepAlive. -- openssh-server: Manual page sshd_config is missing KeepAlive description https://launchpad.net/bugs/50702 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
