Hello,
I'm trying to configure rdist over ssh so that it connects at target side
as a particular user.
I'm using CentOS 7.3 on both ends (I also tested with Fedora 25 with the
same behavor)
So I create at source side the file ~/.ssh/config under mysourceuser home
Host targetsrv.localdomain.local
HostName targetsrv.localdomain.local
User mytargetuser
Then, connected as mysourceuser user on local server
$ ssh targetsrv.localdomain.local
mytargetuser@targetsrv.localdomain.local's password:
So far so good as expected.
But if I create a small distfile to distribute a file on
targetsrv.localdomain.local and execute rdist on it, I receive the prompt
of mysourceuser password, not mytargetuser one....
$ rdist -P /usr/bin/ssh -f ./distfile distrotest
mysourceuser@targetsrv.localdomain.local's password:
It seems the config file is not honored. I tried different combinations but
none worked
eg creating a wrapper script that runs ssh -F config_file "$@"
I can workaround the problem using inside the distfile
"mytargetuser@targetsrv.localdomain.local" instead of
"targetsrv.localdomain.local" , this way it works.
But I would like to avoid it if possible as I have a distfile with many
entries and variables as destination hosts target.
Any help appreciated
Thanks,
Gianluca
