Advanced SSH config
Enhances ssh_config
file capabilities

from lib-ssh
It works with ssh
, scp
, rsync
, git
, etc
The new .ssh/config
file become .ssh/config.advanced
with new features and a better regex engine for the hostnames.
Each time the script is called, it recreate a whole new .ssh/config
, so be careful, backup your old .ssh/config file !
Features
- regex for hostnames (gw.school-..domain.net)
- aliases
- gateways (chains your ssh connections)
- includes (includes sub files)
