Package: clusterssh
Version: 3.13.1-2
Severity: minor

The gethost("$serv") check at line 549 of open_client_windows()
prevents cssh from working with hosts that are "aliased" via
.ssh/config.

A concrete example:

  cat ~/.ssh/config:
  [..]
  Host fb
    HostName foobar.exampledomain.tld
    Port 2222

allows:

  ssh fb

to connect to port 2222 of foobar.exampledomain.tld .

  cssh fb

declares "fb" an unknown host and ignores it because the gethost()
check fails for "fb".

I commented out the "next;" on line 552 as an ugly workaround.
