hi! i've just packaged a small but useful program, autossh. I didn't file an ITP since packaging autossh took me only half an hour to complete. Packages (both source and i386 binary) are available at http://debian.esaurito.net/autossh/ Name: autossh URL: http://www.harding.motd.ca/autossh/ Version: 1.2c Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.1-1), ssh Description: Automatically restart SSH sessions and tunnels autossh is a program to start a copy of ssh and monitor it, restarting it as necessary should it die or stop passing traffic. The idea is from rstunnel (Reliable SSH Tunnel), but implemented in C. Connection monitoring is done using a loop of port forwardings. Backs off on rate of connection attempts when experiencing rapid failures such as connection refused. I'd like to see it in Debian because it's small and useful program (at least for me) filippo. -- Filippo Giunchedi GNU/PG key id: 1024D/6B79D401 Random signature follows: Date: Tuesday, 2002/10/22 - 08:09 dselect proves the existence of Satan.
