Actually, removing the ClientAliveInterval has no effect on a stock Ubuntu ssh client. Sessions stay alive for hours with no input. I'm going to propose a patch to pull out that change. The password authentication portion seems to be valid (or even required) for Azure (as you can still create instances without ssh keys.) I need to investigate how ubuntu-server does this differently from ubuntu-desktop (as I see a different default in a desktop.)
No package seems to "own" /etc/ssh/sshd_config ("dpkg -S /etc/ssh/sshd_config" returns nothing and "grep sshd_config Contents- amd64" doesn't return /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Does this mean it will still be an issue on upgrade? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to walinuxagent in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1188610 Title: sshd_config is modified/replaced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/walinuxagent/+bug/1188610/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
