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

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

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hello, There seems to be just a bit to do with the latest openssh (5.8p1) and ControlPersist. I encountered two problems: 1. When I use ControlPersist in combination with ProxyCommand to reach a other host over that proxy I get the following message: Bad packet length 1397966893. Disconnecting: Paket corrupt When I fist ssh to

Hi, (I'm not subscribed to the list, so please CC me on reply.) I'd like to request adding a feature to OpenSSH: Task: ~~~~~ It is quite sometime useful to invoke a program prior to connecting to an ssh server. The most common use case will probably be port knocking. That is a small program sends certain packets to a server and the server reacts to this by unlocking the ssh port, which

One of the annoyances of ssh is the need to transfer the public key from client machine to server machine, and append to authorized_keys. Although it's simple to do, it's annoying to have to do this manually. Why can't this be automated? ssh offers to add new machine to known_hosts. Why doesn't it offer to add the public key to authorized_keys?

Hi! I recently started using ProxyCommand and noticed that it's not possible to specify a "none" value for it. I've already written a patch for that, but wanted to discuss the issue before posting the patch. The problem is the following: I'd like to use a ProxyCommand by default, but exclude some hosts. But as soon as I have Host * ProxyCommand /some/proxy/command %h %p
