#3819 closed enhancement (fixed)

Hostname alias not used in SSH config file

Reported by: esser@… Owned by: dkocher
Priority: normal Milestone: 3.4.2
Component: sftp Version: 3.3b4
Severity: normal Keywords: SSH config
Cc: Architecture:
Platform: Mac OS X 10.6

Description (last modified by dkocher)

If in your ~/.ssh/config file you have an entry with the "Host" different from the Hostname entry the Hostname is not used.

e.g. 

Host server
    Hostname 192.168.0.100
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/my_key

Cyberduck attempts to connect to "server" rather than the machine defined by Hostname "192.168.0.100"

The following entry does work but is less user friendly 

Host 192.168.0.100
    Hostname 192.168.0.100
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/my_key
