I use my Raspberry pi to connect a server using SSHFS, mounting a folder on the server to a folder on my Pi. My pi acts as a client. My Pi's OS is Linus. I use cable to connect the network, not WiFi

My connecting code is : ssh pi@IPaddress

However, after around 20 seconds, there is no response. It just shows 'Write failed; Broken pipe.'

I tried adding some 'TCPKeepAlive no','ServerAliveInterval 10' and 'ServerAliveCountMax 200' in my ~/.ssh/config, /etc/ssh/ssh_config, /etc/ssh/sshd_config.

After rebooting my Pi, it still disconnected after several seconds.

Does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks!

  • are you sure that there's not a problem with your server?

  • Yeah. I'm pretty sure. I can use my mac to connect my server. At least in one day, it connects successfully without any disconnection.

  • what are the usernames on your server? do you have a server user named pi? if not, you should use ssh username@ipaddress

I tried to use a local network, mounting to the IP address with the same first three parts. Then it can connect for a long time. Therefore, I thought it should be my network issue. I'll try to use wifi to see if my network works or not! Thanks!
