Suppose I am working with three machines. I'm logged into host "workstation" and I would like to ssh to hosts "remote0" and "remote1". "id_dsa" and "id_dsa.pub" exist on "workstation". I've added "id_dsa.pub" from "workstation" to "authorized_keys2" on hosts "remote0" and "remote1". I've used "ssh-add" on "workstation" to add my private key to the ssh agent. Nothing unusual here. Just wanted to be detailed.
Let's say my username on "workstation" is "jeff". My username on "remote0" is also "jeff", however my username on "remote1" is "foo". I can "ssh remote0" and am able to log in without further prompting. All works well. On the other hand, I have to specify my username in "ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]" when connecting to "remote1". This is, of course, because my username on "workstation" and "remote1" differ. I'm curious if there is a way I can configure ssh to automatically use the username "foo" when connecting to "remote1". Of course there are other solutions. I could use an alias or shell script. I want to know if I can configure ssh itself to default to different usernames per remote host.
