I have ssh forwarding ports from a machine on the internet to
another machine with a private IP here at my house.

Everything works fine, except that the connection drops at irregular
intervals, from 20 minutes to 2 or 3 days with a "connection reset
by peer" message.

I've experimented with keepalive and timeout in the config stuff to
no avail. The only thing that seems to help is to run a script
that sends the date from the remote server every 10 seconds. This
makes it stay up for a couple days.

What's going on here? Any ideas? It's very annoying..
