ssh -p66666 rezuan@192.168.1.1 -L13128:localhost:3128 -X
There you go. Just another long ssh commands that you gonna forget. How about those IP addresses ? And the port numbers? Can you remember every single one of them? Fuck no, of course.
I hate those long strings dammit.
When you do advance stuff on ssh, it goes without saying; that the ssh command will be very long. Now, here's a trick to make the long strings go away. Under your "home" directory, find your hidden ssh folder and edit the "config" file.
cd /Users/rezuan/.ssh && vim config
If you cannot find the file, you can create it. Let's edit the file based on the long ssh command like the above. Here's the end result :-
Host www # the shorcut "name"
User rezuan # usernamePort 66666 # port number
HostName 192.168.1.1 # the IP address or host name
Save the file. Now, type this :-
ssh www
Now that's better, right ? Please leave your comments.
