I suppose you have tried the obvious things already, just in case you haven't:
what does
return?
How is ssh configured? IIRC in /etc/sshd_config sshd can be set to close idle connections after a while.
I hope this helps.

How do you test the physical network connection of an interface in solaris. I know that if you have an active connection and the cable gets yanked, you can look in the messages file to check for link failure messages. But is there any better way to see if you have good layer 2 connectivity? (1 Reply)

pppoe-connect
PPPOE-CONNECT(8) System Manager's Manual PPPOE-CONNECT(8)NAME
pppoe-connect - Shell script to manage a PPPoE link
SYNOPSIS
pppoe-connect [config_file]
pppoe-connect interface user [config_file]
DESCRIPTION
pppoe-connect is a shell script which manages a PPPoE connection using the Roaring Penguin user-space PPPoE client. If you omit con-
fig_file, the default file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 is used. If you supply interface and user, then they override the
Ethernet interface and user-name settings in the configuration file.
Note that normally, you should not invoke pppoe-connect directly. Instead, use pppoe-start to bring up the PPPoE connection.
pppoe-connect first reads a configuration file. It then brings up a PPPoE connection. If the connection ever drops, a message is logged
to syslog, and pppoe-connect re-establishes the connection. In addition, each time the connection is dropped or cannot be established,
pppoe-connect executes the script /etc/ppp/pppoe-lost if it exists and is executable.
The shell script pppoe-stop causes pppoe-connect to break out of its loop, bring the connection down, and exit.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
pppoe-connect uses the following shell variables from the configuration file:
ETH The Ethernet interface connected to the DSL modem (for example, eth0).
USER The PPPoE user-id (for example, b1xxnxnx@sympatico.ca).
PIDFILE
A file in which to write the process-ID of the pppoe-connect process (for example, /var/run/pppoe.pid). Two additional files ($PID-
FILE.pppd and $PIDFILE.pppoe) hold the process-ID's of the pppd and pppoe processes, respectively.
By using different configuration files with different PIDFILE settings, you can manage multiple PPPoE connections. Just specify the con-
figuration file as an argument to pppoe-start and pppoe-stop.
