So I have two nearly identical servers that lock out my ssh connection. I will connect and be working fine and then nothing, total lock up. Usually it is rite after I hit enter on a command and the output has been displayed. After which I am greeted with a prompt but I have no controlee over the blinking cursor. Any thought about how I can go about figuring what is going wrong? It seems totally random and I have six SSh sessions at once to my go daddy server and only one will drop out on my at a time. The secure log seems to indicate that is a pam issue, but I would expect not to be able to login if it was a pam issue. What do you all think Here is a clip from the secure log Aug 5 13:15:12 myserver sshd[4280]: Accepted password for user_bryan from 66.193.205.160 port 51738 ssh2 Aug 5 13:15:12 myserver sshd[4280]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user user_bryan by (uid=0) Aug 5 13:15:23 myserver su: pam_unix(su-l:session): session opened for user root by user_bryan(uid=506) Aug 5 13:16:44 myserver sshd[4454]: Accepted password for user_bryan from 66.193.205.166 port 51739 ssh2 Aug 5 13:16:44 myserver sshd[4454]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user user_bryan by (uid=0) Aug 5 13:16:54 myserver su: pam_unix(su-l:session): session opened for user root by user_bryan(uid=506) Aug 5 13:17:57 myserver sshd[1406]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user user_bryan Aug 5 13:17:57 myserver su: pam_unix(su-l:session): session closed for user root Aug 5 13:24:46 myserver sshd[4454]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user user_bryan Aug 5 13:24:46 myserver su: pam_unix(su-l:session): session closed for user root Aug 5 13:35:09 myserver sshd[5418]: Accepted password for user_bryan from 66.193.205.166 port 38322 ssh2 Aug 5 13:35:09 myserver sshd[5418]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user user_bryan by (uid=0) Aug 5 13:35:17 myserver su: pam_unix(su-l:session): session opened for user root by user_bryan(uid=506)
