I agree this sounds like a timeout problem, but I'm not sure where. The
ssh_config files on solaris and linux are the same and they're both using
openssh. I would think they would be faced with the same set of timeout
constraints.
Manipulating the timeout variables sound reasonable. Could you be more specific
about which ones, and whether they are on the ssh client, the director, or the
real server?
Thanks again for helping.
