[Tfug] ssh timeout

Ok, I'm going to ask my fellow Tucson linux friends for help.  I am getting
disconnected from my ssh sessions after 10 minutes.  Here is the message I
get...

[equant at xerxes equant]$ Read from remote host retards.org: Connection reset by
peer Connection to retards.org closed.

The machine I am connecting to has "KeepAlive yes" in its /etc/ssh/sshd_config
file.  On my local machine (Fedora RC1) I have "KeepAlive yes" in my
~/.ssh/config

There are some computers that I connect to through a vpn, and they never time
out, but it seems like ssh connections to all other servers does timeout.  Can
anyone suggest a solution?  I'd like to leave ssh connections up indefinately.

Thanks,
