Looks like it, but I think that it shouldn't terminate bash anyway.
The 'return' you see is local to .bashrc or whatever file was being
loaded.

Try running 'ssh root@192.168.2.109 bash --norc --noprofile -i' and
see if you get a shell. If you do, it would suggest some
misconfiguration of bash but from what I can see your configs are OK..

(For some reason, the '-i' arg can't be before the long args, or
you'll get a bash invocation error)

Hope to help,
Guido
