SSH timeouts
my ssh sessions timeout awfully fast which is annoying. How can I change this?

Code:
Read from remote host X.X.X.X: Connection reset by peer
Connection to X.X.X.X closed.

you can edit the sshd_config, which is usually in /etc/ssh/. It is well commented, and the timeout parameter is easy to find. If you cannot find it, check the manpage:

man sshd_config
man sshd

You did restart sshd after editing sshd_config, didn't you?

I avoid this by running spinner. It continuously print a single character on your terminal, so it never times out.

I run spinner with -n parameter, so it's printing null character, which is invisible on screen

To install spinner, just read this notes:
