TL;DR: I expect ProxyCommand to have effect in preference to ControlPath. I've just tripped over this one. I have an ssh Host (let us call it "MAIN") with a ControlPath and with ControlMaster=no, from the .ssh/config file. I also have a shell script whose purpose is to hop to a remote host through a port forward, which uses the ProxyCommand option like...

If one wants to go this way, then I just discovered Tags it should work like this (I haven?t tested it and never used tags) Match tagged FA ForwardAgent yes ControlPath ~/.ssh/controlmaster-%r@%h-%p-forwardagent ControlMaster off ? and then to have a session with forwarding: ssh -P FA user at host But I still think we should be able to setup ssh to just do the right thing if the options differ in general.

From: Christian Hesse <mail at eworm.de> Modern Linux systems create a private directory in /run/user/ for each user, named by user id. This adds a new character sequence '%i' for expansion in ControlPath to match thisi directory.

Hello, Is there a way to use a different ControlPath depending on command line options, or should there be one? To be specific, I don?t enable ForwardAgent by default for security reasons but only explicitely (-A) when I need to to e.g. copy files between servers. This and other options don?t play well with multiplexing because I usually already hav...

...ve "ControlMaster auto" to have multiple sessions get muxed into one, sometimes it's really helpful to _not_ use the same session (e.g. if you want to ssh -2fNR). It'd be quite nice if there were a flag to tell openssh to not mux the new connection at all - i.e. what "ssh -o ControlPath=none" does. (The 'obvious' invocation `ssh -S /dev/null` doesn't work unless you also specify `-o ControlMaster=no` - and that still produces a warning about connection refused.) The ControlPath=none bit is somewhat buried in the manpages, and somewhat annoying to type interactive...

Hi. Just a suggestion : in the ControlPath syntax, you could add a %H that would expand to the name of the "Host" specification matched, + %h. In my opinion, when you add a "Host" paragraph with a different name for the same target host, generally you dont want to reuse the same control socket. Of course you can write d...

Hello All-- First, thanks for ControlPath/ControlMaster. It's very handy, and ControlMaster=autoask is just what i wanted! I'm having difficulty with a common use case, however. I want to LocalForward on secondary connections using an already-established ControlPath. From what i can tell, the second ssh connection doesn't r...

...e when the connection is established - e.g. a multiplexed connection or no-shell sessions that is used for X11 forwarding. IMO you would be better off defining multiple "Host" entries in ssh_config for your targets that forced the use of specific QoS and baked these into the hostname and ControlPath. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
