SSH config file - Run command before connection
0
i cannot run a command before connect with ssh to remote server using ~/.ssh/config file.
I have tried with options "ProxyCommand" and "LocalCommand" but it doesn't work.
- ProxyCommand: seems it run the command, but after that doesn't ask me the password of ssh connection
- LocalCommand: run the command only if the connection successful
linux ssh ssh-config

Have you considered aliases or functions?

Theorectically it could be done with ProxyCommand and passing a scriptname that contains what you want to be executed, but you need to ensure that the script ends with setting up a connection to the remote host, fulfilling the "proxy" part. E.g./usr/bin/nc %h %p

@JeffSchaller Thanks for your answare. Yes, before i was using aliases, but config file of ssh is more portable and smart than aliases.

@wurtel Thanks for your answare. Can i put my command and on success execute "nc" without log? E.g./bin/echo hello > /tmp/test && /usr/bin/nc %h %p > /dev/null 2>&1
