Using alternative config file #20

OS is Ubuntu Jammy my default ssh config is in .ssh/config

I set up a extension_config file for this extension and set that as the "SSH Config Locations" field in the gui.

While it reads the hosts from the extension_config file in the display list, I discovered that it reads the actual configs from the config file still. So to make it work i have to setup the config in config and then only the Host in extension_config.

Working setup: .ssh/config:

Host server1
  HostName 192.168.10.12
  User admin
  IdentiyFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa.1

.ssh/extension_config:

Host server1

Not working setup: .ssh/config:

.ssh/extension_config:

Host server1
  HostName 192.168.10.12
  User admin
  IdentiyFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa.1
