similar to: sftp and ControlPath

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

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 have few terminals open to the host. The most

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

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

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.

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

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

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) +

Hi, A user has noticed that X11 forwarding does not appear to work when using session multiplexing. It seems that the DISPLAY environment variable is not getting set in the slave sessions. Any thought? The ~/.ssh/config ib below. Host somehost-master ControlMaster yes ControlPath ~/.ssh/somehost.sock HostbasedAuthentication no HostName somehost Host somehost-slave ControlPath

It has always bugged me that if I want to use a shell and perform some file transfers in a single host I have to take two SSH connections: one for the shell via ssh(1) and one for the file transfer via sftp(1). Some graphical SSH clients can perform sftp operations and ssh shell access in a single connection by using SSH2 protocol's support for multiple channels. So I hacked my openssh client
