Vvvegard!

I’ve played around with SSH to some extent, and thought I’d write down a few nifty features that I like. Kind of a little follow-up on my Key-based authentication and Accessing ArcHTTP-post. Keep in mind that you have to change things like host and user to fit your appropriate needs.

scp foo user@host:~/bar
# To copy a folder use the prefix -R foo/, like this
scp -R foo/ user@host:~/

ssh -l user host -D 8080

ssh -l user host -L 8080:localhost:80

Host foo
        User root
        HostName host
        IdentityFile ~/.ssh/otherkey
        Compression yes
        CompressionLevel 9
        KeepAlive Yes
Host bar
        User foo
        HostName host
