Configuring SSH servers on Ubuntu

March 24, 2016 | Posted in SSH | Ajoy Oommen

If you need to SSH to multiple servers regularly, this is the simplest way to do this:

  • Create a file (if it doesn’t already exist) ~/.ssh/config

  • Add the following entry for each of your servers

      Host blog
        HostName ec2-192-168-1-1.compute-1.amazonaws.com
        User ec2-user
        IdentityFile ~/.ssh/acces-key.pem
    
  • To SSH to your server, run ssh blog

  • To browse the files on your server, open any file, go to File > Connect to server.. In server address, enter sftp://blog and you will be able to browse files in your server.
