[chef] knife never times out waiting on an SSH connection

[< >]

Hi everyone, 

I wanted to get an idea if anyone had some input on how to go about fixing 
this
issue: 

https://tickets.opscode.com/browse/KNIFE-39

It seems to have been open for some time and I'm not sure if there has been 
any
discussion on a fix, at least from my Googling? Wondering if anyone has some
ideas that we can start airing out on the mailing list. 

Thanks in advance! 

Lance
