Hi! Few years ago i have similar problem (but no with MediaWiki). I used small server, placed at my home, and connected via ISP. ISP gave public "white" IPs, but this IP was dynamic, so i used DynDNS to update my domain settings. Symptoms was like your - when i connected to server with ssh (and do nothing) - HTTP connection is going. After near 30 minutes after SSH disconnect server stops to respond. I found the problem and solution, in my case it was: 1) ISP give me IP through DHCP. This IP is static. 2) My computer have public IP in internet (dynamic) 3) ISP gates this it one to another. 4) <PROBLEM> When all connections with my computer closed (ssh disconnected, no external connects), ISP gave my public IP to another user (for white IP economy) 5) When DynDNS try to update domain info - ISP give me new public IP, this IP goes to my domain record, but, after it, DynDNS closes connection and IP lost. 6) To solve this behaviour i installed on my server an IRC-bot, which seat on my irc channel and regularry post random symbols. So, connection never closes, IP newer changes and all OK. Maybe, you have similar problem? For the first - make sure, that "403 Forbidden" says _YOUR_ server, but no other. 01.08.2012 13:15, ms пишет:

Encrypted $HOME setups work like this. You should look at the way it is configured on your server. As a workaround, have you tried leaving open a screen(1) session?
