SSH – Manage remote servers in SSH config

Create the config file under your .ssh folder.

Ex. /home/ykyuen/.ssh/config

Host remote1
HostName www.remote1.com
User ykyuen

Host remote2
HostName www.remote2.com
User kit

 

So instead of

ssh ykyuen@www.remote1.com

 

Just type

ssh remote1

 

Done =)
