I am indeed using SSH. I will check the configurations and other
network-related issues. Thank you for your help.

connections via guacd 1.5.3 |

Hello,
I am using guacd 1.5.3 to establish Linux connections. My client is based on
the guacamole-client with some modifications. I have observed that after
establishing a Linux connection, if there is no activity for about 10 minutes,
the connection gets disconnected.
I would like to ask whether this timeout disconnection is set by guacd or by
guacamole-client, or if there might be other possible reasons not related to
these two components.
The timeout is most likely not coming from guacd or Guacamole, but more likely
from either your network or the remote system. There are a few things that you
can check:
* Assuming you are connecting via SSH (you didn't mention above, you just said
Linux?), set the "server-alive-interval" (Server keepliave interval) parameter
in your SSH connection, which will enable TCP keepalives to be sent between
guacd and the SSH server, and may help prevent network-related timeouts from
shutting down your SSH connection.
* Check the configuration of the remote SSH server to see if it is enforcing
any idle limits on the remote sessions.
