Oops. That's -T. From the man page, it doesn't really look like there's an ssh_config option for -N. -----Original Message----- From: openssh-unix-dev [mailto:openssh-unix-dev-bounces+scott_n=xypro.com@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Scott Neugroschl Sent: Tuesday, August 09, 2016 1:04 PM To: Volker Diels-Grabsch; openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Equivalent ssh_config setting for "ssh -N" RequestTTY no -----Original Message----- From: openssh-unix-dev [mailto:openssh-unix-dev-bounces+scott_n=xypro.com@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Volker Diels-Grabsch Sent: Tuesday, August 09, 2016 9:19 AM To: openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Equivalent ssh_config setting for "ssh -N" Dear OpenSSH developers, Is there an equivalent ssh_config setting for the command line option ssh -N ... ? I want to connect to a server that doesn't provide an interactive shell but allows for port forwarding only. I'd love to configure this into my ~/.ssh/config as follows: Host foo Hostname ... Port ... User ... LocalForward ... LocalForward ... LocalForward ... SomeSettingEquivalentToDashN yes so I can call it via "ssh foo" instead of "ssh -N foo". Are there good reasons not to provide such a setting? Or, would you accept a patch that introduces such a setting? If so, how sould this setting be named?
