I unfortunately had to move to a satellite-based Internet connection, since nothing else was available in my area.  It has very slow upload speeds with a large latency. 

Since moving, I've found that cvs updates in larger hierarchies, namely /webcvs/texinfo, usually die after approximately 90 seconds with the message:
Received disconnect from 199.232.41.3: 2: Timeout, your session not responding.

It will occasionally run to completion, occasionally time out sooner, etc.  I've tried everything I can think of on the client side to affect this: ServerAliveInterval, ServerAliveCountMax, TCPKeepAlive, and more, but nothing has made any difference.

On the server side, setting ClientAliveInterval 15 (or some such) in sshd_config seems like the most likely thing to help, although I obviously don't know for sure.

Are you willing and able to try to help with this?  I don't know if anyone else is on a satellite connection; I doubt anyone on real broadband or even dialup would have the problem.

Thanks.
