I address this problem (and others) by having different uids for each 
instance.

A better variant of this trick is to have different ssh keys for each 
instance. In ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the master you need one line per key.

Theres lots of good stuff you can add in that file..... per-key environment 
variables will solve your main problem. no-X11-forwarding etc will solve the 
timeout problem you mentioned. 

We have some off-site replicas, so replica-to-master security is interesting 
to us. For extra security on the master you can restrict this 
replication-login-key to specific IP addresses, and limit its command line so 
that the key can only be used for replication, not accessing a full shell.

I hope this helps.
