Feature request: more information sent to ProxyCommand
I use ProxyCommand is connect to several servers, but the command executed doesn't know the difference between being called for ssh or scp; in the latter case, I'd like to set QoS bits so the traffic is flagged as bulk. Would it be possible to send additional information to the proxy command so it can make better decisions about how to relay its traffic? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

If someone offers a patch, i'd be happy to review, test, and give feedback, though. --dkg -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
