HOST being defined in ~/.ssh/config
Using mosh with a rebound server
When using a poor connection, mosh is a great tool (github)
My goal is to quickly open a connection to my rebound server having synced my ssh config.
#!/bin/bash # # usefull to connect to an host using a mosh jump server when using poor internet on the client side. # # The Jump server on witch mosh is installed as defined in ~/.ssh/config JUMP_SERVER="MY_JUMP_SERVER" # de UDP port to use on the server, leave empty for default. MOSH_PORT="12345" echo "Updating SSH bookmarks from ~/.ssh/config" grep -Eo "Host [A-Za-z0-9_-]+" ~/.ssh/config | cut -c 6- | sed -e 's/^/ssh /' > ~/.bookmarks-ssh echo "uploading ~/.ssh/config to jump server" scp ~/.ssh/config $JUMP_SERVER:~/.ssh/config if [ ! "$MOSH_PORT" ];then echo "No port defined" mosh $JUMP_SERVER else echo "Port $MOSH_PORT defined" mosh -p $MOSH_PORT $JUMP_SERVER fi
To make the typing faster on the rebound server, I use the same method as this script to get to automatically type my destination using .bookmarks-ssh.
