SSH Secure Shell taking too long to respond?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Disable\u00c2\u00a0Group Support System (GSS) login, to do this follow this:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Log in to the remote server as usual<\/li>\n
  2. Open the SSH configuration (nano \/etc\/ssh\/sshd_config)<\/li>\n
  3. Once inside look for GSS authentication (Ctrl+W, gss, enter)<\/li>\n
  4. Look for the line that says GSS authentication and add a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153#\u00e2\u20ac\u009d in front of it<\/li>\n
  5. Save and close (ctrl+X, Y, enter)<\/li>\n
  6. Restart the ssh service (service sshd restart or service ssh restart or \/etc\/init.d\/sshd restart or \/etc\/init.d\/ssh restart)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Explanation: SSH can use several different login schemes, password and username, keys, pam\/Kerberos, gss, etc<\/p>\n

    What it does is that when you connect to the server it goes one by one trying to see what works, the last one is username and password which is the most regular one, the authentication that takes the most time is with the gss api, since it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not being used, it can be disabled, thus increasing the speed login works.<\/p>\n
