Subjectssh: connect() stalls on RedHat 5.1 / kernel 2.0.34
Ssh version 1.2.22, 1.2.23 and 1.2.25 occasionally stall in 
connect(). The stall occurs every now and then, and typically 
the succeeding trials fail as well. In more detail, stall means
that ssh stops in connect, and after few minutes times out 
without getting a connection.

Needless to say, netwrok works fine (I usually execute ssh 
from remote shell in the first place) and the sshd is up and 
running (tried from another machine). I can even telnet the 
port 22 while this stall goes on.

I can't imagine how this could be a bug in ssh (the connect() 
parameters are perfectly correct according to strace), but
I never get these stalls with other programs doing connect().
Further more, I've not seen this on any other RH 5.1 or kernel 
2.0.34.

The environment: ssh-1.2.22, ssh-1.2.23 and 1.2.25, all compiled 
locally with egcs 1.0.2. The Linux installation is quite vanilla
RedHat 5.1 with the original 2.0.34 kernel. The machine is an 
oridinary P90, with a network card that has had no symptoms of
unreliability.

Has anybody else experienced anything similar? 


This is what I get from "strace ssh -v -v -v host":

connect(3, {sin_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(22),
sin_addr=inet_addr("ip.ip.ip.ip")}, 16) = -1 ETIMEDOUT (Connection timed
out)

is not
 connected)
