On a linux box I created 10 user accounts. They were able to putty and ftp to the linuxServer. I installed minecraft server. Now the users of the 10 accounts can login but the connection automatically gets closed by Linux server. I can still login with putty. My users get an error connection closed by remote host. How can I fix this so my 10 users can login again?

Are the connections idle? If so, add this to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the server:

TCPKeepAlive yes
ClientAliveInterval 60

and reload the sshd:

$ sudo service ssh reload
trurl

The environmental setting TMOUT is used to automatically log inactive users out. The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes).

Either adjust the TMOUT setting, or to stop auto-logouts completely set to zero, in users .bash_profile (or set system-wide in /etc/profile)

export TMOUT=0
