Hi,
I have a little script (on a Suse 10.1 server) that creates a ssh tunnel to connect a MySql slave server with it's master.
The script does something like this:
while true; do ssh -oBatchMode=yes -L 33306:127.0.0.1:3306 -N root@someserver >>$LOG 2>&1 sleep 30 done
The loop is to re-establish the connection when the netwerk connection goes down for some reason.
This works ok, but when I run this script on a remote shell the script gets killed when I close the shell. So should I make a script in /etc/init.d to make this a more permanent solution, or is there a better way? And I also have the feeling the loop isn't the best solution for the problem? ;)
