83 .B \-K \fItimeout_seconds
84 Ensure that traffic is transmitted at a certain interval in seconds. This is
85 useful for working around firewalls or routers that drop connections after
86 a certain period of inactivity. The trade-off is that a session may be
87 closed if there is a temporary lapse of network connectivity. A setting
88 if 0 disables keepalives.

91 .B SSH_ASKPASS
92 dbclient can use an external program to request a password from a user.
93 SSH_ASKPASS should be set to the path of a program that will return a password
94 on standard output. This program will only be used if either DISPLAY is set and
95 standard input is not a TTY, or the environment variable SSH_ASKPASS_ALWAYS is
96 set.
97 .TP
98 .B DROPBEAR_PASSWORD
99 A password to use for remote authentication can be specified in the environment
100 variable DROPBEAR_PASSWORD. Care should be taken that the password is not
101 exposed to other users on a multi-user system, or stored in accessible files.
