More SSH Tips
I just love OpenSSH. That is the single greatest tool on unix-like operating systems, as far as I am concerned. I’ve blogged about SSH plenty. SSH tunneling, SSH forwarding, SSHFS and more. Needless to say, I believe that SSH is the single most flexible and powerful package on unix-like operating systems. And, with this post, it just gets better.
First, I’m not sure if you are aware, but in your ~/.ssh/config file, you can specify all the servers that you connect to, with their associated port (being that they are running SSH on a non-standard port other than 22). This makes it easy on the typing when sitting at the shell. For example, rather than type this:
aaron@hercules:~$ ssh -p 22222 aaron@some.remote.server.com
I can add the following to my ~/.ssh/config file:
Host some.remote.server.com
Port 22222
Now, I just need to type:
aaron@hercules:~$ ssh aaron@some.remote.server.com
