Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gvfs
Many servers will drop the connection if no activity happens on the wire. When this happens any operation (like copying a file in nautilus, or saving in gedit), just hangs for ever, locking up the program. This could be fixed by first testing if the connection still exists and if it doesn't try to reconnecting and if that fails, send a fail to the application. It could also be fixed by periodically sending out NOOP to keep the connection alive. ** Affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Operations hangs on ftp and sftp (ssh) because of server silently dropping connection due to no prior activity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/631184 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
