Tor TOR BUG,Tor dropping SSH tunnel to hidden SSH service

Other cause?
Source Link

I have multiple hidden services which are SSH servers.

They do give unstable connections, and drop out all the time (after a couple seconds). Sometimes with a SOCKS error 1 or with packet_write_wait: Connection to UNKNOWN port 65535: Broken pipe

A couple specifics

  • I use openssh as the server
  • HidServAuth is properly configured on all client
  • I use netcat-openbsd to connect to the socks 5 proxy (configured through ProxyCommand)
  • Compression Yes in the client .ssh/config file

Anybody any suggestions to overcome this kind of behavior?

EDIT: I tried every ProxyCommand, but I feel like it is the Socks proxy of tor (or tor itself) that drops the packet or stops working. I'm running in a chroot, can this make a difference?
