HI

I'm not sure what you mean by ssh server. 'ssh' is secure shell login.

Try adding TMOUT=3600 to your user's .profile file. This will end any logged in user's session in one hour. 1800 in one half hour, etc.

Hi:

Use ssh option "ConnectTimeout" o configure this option for sshd daemon.

$ man ssh_configd

ConnectTimeout Specifies the timeout (in seconds) used when connecting to the SSH server, instead of using the default system TCP timeout.

This value is used only when the target is down or really unreachable, not when it refuses the connection.
