SSH settings to minimize session timeouts

Place these settings in the ssh server (sshd) configuration file and restart sshd:
/etc/ssh/sshd_config

ClientAliveInterval 120
ClientAliveCountMax 3
TCPKeepAlive yes

The other way, and easier and safer way is for your desktop machine to send those keep alive messages. As root on your desktop (or client) machine, edit /etc/ssh/ssh_config and add the line:

ServerAliveInterval 60

From Our Clients...

"We needed an application that would allow customers to access their data over the web. Richweb provided a solution that will allow us to reposition quickly as demands grow and change. When I was first given the project to build this application, there was no doubt from the beginning who we'd partner with. Richweb got it done fast, and they got it done right."
