./wip/autossh, Monitor and automatically restart SSH sessions and tunnels

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.4g, Package name: autossh-1.4g, Maintainer: mj

autossh is a program to start a copy of ssh and monitor it, restarting it
as necessary should it die or stop passing traffic.
o The idea is from rstunnel (Reliable SSH Tunnel), but implemented in C.
o The author's view is that it is not as fiddly as rstunnel to get
to work.
o Connection monitoring using a loop of port forwardings or a remote
echo service.
o Backs off on rate of connection attempts when experiencing rapid
failures such as connection refused.

Log message:
Update to 1.4c

Chagelog:
Version 1.4c

- updated option string up to OpenSSH 5.6
- when using -f, set gate_time to 0; the assumption is that
  it is being used for infrastructure (i.e. in a system startup),
  has been tested, and bombing out just because the remote end is
  not up is not the desired behaviour.
- add patch from Thorsten Glazer for configure, fixes misplaced
  parenthesis and check for __progname.
