Better logging, especially error reporting, and much more modular configuration for multiple parallel autossh daemons without having to hand edit and customize systemd init scripts. I've had some success with using chef to manage it, along with deploying SSH configurations to avoid the "known_hosts" mismatched hostkey issues as target hosts change IP address, and to get management of the relevant public and private SSH keys for the port forwarding. _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
