909421 - please make adjustments to ssh config on GPO managed ix machines

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations :: RelOps: General, task)

Description

[[e-mail] (:bhearsum)]

I've been working on some new tools that will allow us to do better automated recovery of machines. In order for them to work well with Windows we need some adjustments made to their ssh configs. Specifically, the following needs to be set in kts.ini:
allow_disconnected_sessions = 0
auto_reconnect_session = 0
ban_max_connections = 0
buff_height = 2000
idle_timeout = 900
io_timeout = 900

And the following needs to be put into scripts\allusers.bat:
c:\mozilla-build\msys\bin\bash.exe --login


I'm assuming that you can make this change to t-w732-*, t-xp32-*, and t-w864-*. Please let me know if this is incorrect or not possible so I can figure out an alternative.

I'll be deploying to w64-ix-* by hand, as they aren't managed.

After speaking with Amy on IRC I should also note that we'll want the new imaging procedure for the 2008R2 machines to apply these changes as well.

The beauty of the new management system is that all systems new or yet to be installed will get the change. 

Most of the changes were already in and I added the missing items.

I made a small change to your allusers.bat request from:

C:\mozilla-build\msys\bin\bash.exe --login

to:

%SYSTEMDRIVE%\mozilla-build\msys\bin\bash.exe --login

Changes being pushed now and will be picked up at next reboot. Verified bash change and getting the following prompt result on ssh login:

Awesome.

Per IRC, things look good now. Thanks!
