It's not an error, it's a debug message caused by a) the server sending
keepalive messages because it's configured to and b) the client printing
them because it's in debug mode.

I'd fix b) by setting LogLevel to INFO in ssh_config (or
$HOME/.ssh/config). This is the default, so there's probably a LogLevel
DEBUG already in there someplace that you'll need to change or delete.

If you really want to you can change a) by setting ClientAliveInterval
to zero in sshd_config, but presumably it's enabled for a reason...

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
