Support ProxyCommand for SSH connections #233

Closed vseguip closed 3 years ago

vseguip commented 4 years ago

Wezterm supports SSH connections via libssh2 which means it does not support ProxyCommand in ssh_config. This makes connections from outside the internal network at work fail since they need to go through a proxy. It would be nice if wezterm supported ProxyCommand either by using the ssh crate (libssh supports ssh_config out of the box) or by implementing the same mechanism with libssh2.

The current state of the main branch has improved ssh support; we still use libssh2 under the covers, but now parse and understand a number of options from ssh_config, as well as allow specifying them from the command line:

wezterm ssh "-oProxyCommand=nc localhost 22" localhost

Does it use libssh2 to also parse the ssh_config file?

wez commented 3 years ago

libssh2 doesn't parse ssh_config files. wezterm has its own code to parse those files here: https://github.com/wez/wezterm/blob/main/wezterm-ssh/src/config.rs
