+1 here as well. I'm trying to set up a secure Apt archive using ssh to limit access. I'm also making a Debian package to set up access to the archive, so it would be nice to add the Host stanza to a separate file for maintenance reasons. Methods such as using aliases/scripts to aggregate the various config files before execing ssh won't work for this, as apt-get is not going to call an shell-defined alias. Guess I'm gonna have to fall back to my old method of using scripts to rewrite /etc/ssh/ssh_config - which is a horrible way to do things. This is precisely why pretty much every major Linux service uses config.d directories instead of monolithic config files. EXCEPT OPENSSH. This request has now been ignored for 4 years. It would be nice to see some sort of response. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/739495 Title: include in .ssh/config To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openssh/+bug/739495/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Definitely +1 to this! An alternative (and more generic) approach would be doing this by intercepting .conf file reads (via FUSE?).

+1 This feature could be very useful. @Tomas Pospisek : For now you can use only do some cheat with a shell script. For example having your configuration file in ~/.ssh/config.d and make that type of alias: alias ssh="cat ~/.ssh/config.d/* > ~/.ssh/config ; ssh" It my way to keep my config file up-to-date.

2009 ? This bug is rather young, I am sure at least 10 years is mandatory to have something as complex as this integrated... There are even patchs attached without even a comment on them. As far as I can tell user interface is clearly not the focus of either OpenSSL or OpenSSH, just take a look at the OpenSSL api if you need convincing. The funny thing is that if security is the concern here this is stupid since users will do things that may open a real security risk instead of relying on a proven built in Include which could just apply the same rules it uses when loading the main ".ssh/config". What is preventing this from getting in ??? This a really helpful feature if you want to work with generated files without destroying you main config file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/739495 Title: include in .ssh/config To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openssh/+bug/739495/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Attached is a patch for an almost complete implementation. All that remains is
the "file not readable is not an error" logic.
Adding the following to your config file should read the named file in
place.
Include "~/.ssh/config.customer1"
If the file is not found, only a warning should be given, like so:
warning("%s line %d: Include file \"%s\" not found - skipping.", ...);
~/ and ~username expansion should be available.

It seems like this is a bug that has already been reported to the developers of openSSH. Please consider commenting in the upstream bug (https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1585) and proposing your patch, possibly integrating some of the work in the draft patch that is already included there.
