The culprit is udev. udev runs "ifup" when it founds eth0, then ifup starts dhclient3 and restarts sshd!
Temporary fix to this: - Remove "auto eth0" from /etc/network/interfaces - Add "/sbin/ifup eth0" to /etc/rc.local (before "exit 0", of course) Now only udev has the strange signal mask on my machine. -- sshd zombie processes and strange behavior after karmic upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/407428 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
