I'm running 3.2 Generic with OpenSSH 3.5 and authpf to authorize
wireless users.

Until a few months ago, this worked flawlessly. Since then, apparently a
patch to newer Windows XP Pro clients causes them to timeout on the
inactive ssh sessions. Any hints on what I can do either on the client or
server sides to fix this problem? I'm pretty sure this is an OS problem,
not a client software problem because it happens with any ssh software I
use.

The log I see in the firewall when the disconnect occurs looks like this:

"Jan 30 13:24:38 knight sshd[23215]: Disconnecting: Timeout, your session
not responding."

Mac OS X clients still work fine.

Thanks so much for any help you can give:)
