I edited my ~/.ssh/config
file using Vim by doing
$ vim ~/.ssh/config
Here is my ~/.ssh/config
file, me logging into my account using just the alias
I chose with an ssh
command, and me copying a file using just the alias I
chose with an scp
command.
My ~/.ssh/config
file contains what I assume is the alias (ieng6
in my case)
after Host
and then HostName
and User
from the SSH URL
<User>@<Hostname>
I had used before.
To log in and copy files, I can use the ssh
and scp
commands I have used
before, but replace all mentions of cs15lwi22asy@ieng6.ucsd.edu
with just
ieng6
, my alias.
