Hi matt, would it be possible to you make the server also times out when it looses connection with the client that requested a reverse tunnel ?
Current version: Dropbear 2016.74 Scenario: 1 ) Client 1 connects to the server passing -K 5 option and -R 7777:localhost:22 , after this, if i go to server and type ssh localhost:7777, i will get a reverse ssh connection to the client. ( works as expected ) 2 ) Server disconnects and reconnects using a new public ip. 3) Client 1 will time out after 5 seconds 4) client 1 try to recreate the tunnel connecting to the new ip address. It will fail because there is already a 7777 address bound to dropbear by the old connection. It would be nice if the previous connection timed out on the server too. []'s Salatiel
