Description Robert Watson freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2000-09-30 17:00:01 UTC
Ssh to a FreeBSD box, run gv, cvsup, or some other relatively high
bandwidth X11 application, and do stuff.  On exiting the application,
the connection will sometimes die:

alsvid:/data/fbsd-current/fresh/acl/src/sys/ufs/ufs> Connection to 192.168.11.102 closed by remote host.
Connection to 192.168.11.102 closed.

I've experienced this both on higher latency links (60ms+) and local
ethernets.  There was some speculation it might have to do with recent
changes in the I/O support in sshd, and full buffers.  sshd does not
die due to a segfault or coredump.

Fix: 

No available.
How-To-Repeat: 
See description.

SIGPIPE wasn't being ignored like it should have been here.  This has 
been fixed.  Thanks!
