I've got SSH running on my server. When I have two ssh terminals open (from workstation to server), and I exit from one of them, the other stops responding. This also happens with an ssh session and an scp transfer. As soon as the scp transfer finishes, the terminal session stops responding as well. The two sessions do not have to be with the same username. If I open one terminal with user joe, and another with user fred, exiting from one will kill the other.

Anybody have any ideas on why this is happening?

Is either connection (client or server) going through a NAT router? Just speculation, but maybe closing one connection is causing a NAT router to kill the connection.

The NAT was my problem. I still haven't found anything in the router's docs mentioning this. But I moved the server from behind the NAT and the problems went away. Thanks for the help.
