Package: dsh
Severity: wishlist
Hi.
It would be cool if dsh allows some more features for specifying settings like
--show-machine-names, --concurrent-shell and even --remoteshellopt
1) It should be generally possible to specify presets of them, just
like the groups, e.g. in /etc/dsh/presets are files with the name of
the preset and the same syntax as dsh.conf
If a preset was specified at command line (e.g. with --preset <name>,
not to forget the completion ;) ), these settings should override
ANYTHING (and should in turn be overriden by directly specified
command line options).
One could argue whether unspecified options should be derived by e.g. dsh.conf
2) The same should be able to be specified in the group files
themselves, e.g. in form of special comments.
This would be quite handy, as e.g. for special groups I want to
disable concurrent execution, or e.g. explicitly disable X11 and/or
ssh-agent forwarding via an remoteshellopt.
Thanks,
Chris.
apropos remoteshellopt's:
It would be cool to see some documentation in the doc-section, how to
explicitly tighten/harden ssh as far as possible.
I't at least suggest to disable all X11/X11Trusted/Agent
Forwardings,.. but perhaps other ssh_config or ssh options could be
used too.
Do you haven an idea here?
