The 'ssh' plugin only supports a single active connection? #69

Closed ehmar closed 6 years ago

ehmar commented 6 years ago

Have been trying to figure out multiple active SSH connections (connecting to 2 different networks using ssh). Most issues I can find say multiple connections are available in NM 1.2, but I don't know if that's for ssh, or other plugins (openvpn, pptp, etc.).

I'm using NM 1.6.2 w/ NM-ssh 1.2.1 on Debian Stretch. I can get both ssh vpns to connect individually, but never at the same time.

NM logs and nmcli both show "The 'ssh' plugin only supports a single active connection."

Is it possible for the ssh plugin to support multiple simultaneous connections? If not, can multiple connections be added?

Thanks,

Same problem in Fedora 26.

Thanks for that. I have it on my TODO list. I actually already started development for it already. There shouldn't be a problem to support multiple connections with the plugin - it's a matter of getting the registration of the plugin right with NM (since multiple VPN connections is a new-ish feature of NM).

Thanks for the update. I've been getting by with one NM/VPN and the other(s) over SSH/PPP http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/ppp-ssh.html

Closed by #73.

@lhw Probably worth releasing this one. I tagged it as 1.2.7.
