similar to: Suggestion for %h in ControlPath

This allows me to set 'ControlPath ~/.ssh/sockets/%h.%p.%u' for example. Have I missed a good reason why ssh_connect finds the default port number for itself instead of just having it in options.port (like we do for the the default in options.user)? --- openssh-4.1p1/ssh.c~ 2005-06-12 09:47:18.000000000 +0100 +++ openssh-4.1p1/ssh.c 2005-06-12 09:40:53.000000000 +0100 @@ -604,6 +604,17

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 this: ProxyCommand ssh

While it's real handy to have "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

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 report any errors, but silently ignores the supplied

Hi. Last night on an irc openssh channel, a user brought up a use case involving cluster trees and very descriptive (i.e. long) hierarchical hostnames. To make a long story short, his ControlPath (~/.ssh/control-master /%r@%h:%p) was bumping up against UNIX_PATH_MAX. Attached patch adds a new percent-token (%H) that expands to the sha1 digest of the concatenation of host (%h) + port (%p) +

Hello, Right now, there is a recommendation about using special strings in ControlPatch in ssh_config.5, but there's no specification of recommended directory. So users use random paths like /home/misc/tmp/%r@%h:%p. Would it be worth to suggest the ~/.ssh/ directory for ControlPath and to mention that used directory should not be publicly accessible? It would help to better specify the
