% AFSSH(1) % Timo Weingärtner % 2013-07-01 # NAME afssh - wrapper around ssh-agent-filter and ssh # SYNOPSIS *afssh* [*ssh-agent-filter options*] -- [*ssh arguments*] *afssh* -- [*ssh arguments*] # DESCRIPTION afssh (agent filtered ssh) start ssh-agent-filter(1), passing it the arguments given to afssh before the separator `--`. If there are no arguments before `--`, whiptail(1) or dialog(1) is used to ask the user which keys to forward. After setting up the ssh-agent-filter(1) ssh(1) is started with `-A` and the rest of the arguments (after `--`). When ssh(1) exits, the ssh-agent-filter(1) is killed to not leave tons of them idling. # OPTIONS -h, \--help : prints a short usage description, then runs ssh-agent-filter(1) with `--help` and ssh(1) with `--help` \-- : mandatory separator between the options passed to ssh-agent-filter(1) and those passed to ssh(1) # RETURN VALUES Returns the return value of ssh(1) unless setting up the ssh-agent-filter failed, in which case the return value might be any non-zero value. # SEE ALSO ssh-agent-filter(1), ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-add(1), whiptail(1), dialog(1)
