openssh unix dev - Feb 2004 - connection sometime hand on start.

Hi,

I'm using a cygwin openssh 3.7.1p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 
0.9.7c 30 Sep 2003

to connect to a sshd server : sshd version OpenSSH_3.4p1 Debian 
1:3.4p1-1.woody.3

Sometime the connection hang. I've written a little batch script :

set USER=u12
echo "start" > log.txt

:begin
    time /T
    time /T >>log.txt
    c:\kiwi\bin\ssh.exe -F ssh_config -i .\keys\id_rsa 
%USER%@green.kiwi-backup.com ls /mnt/data1/%USER%/snapshot

goto begin

It work fine but sometime, the ssh ls hang for exactelly 2 hour. I think 
that it's the tcp timeout of the socket.

I use this sort of connection in some automatic scripts and it's really 
annoyoing.

Any idea ?
