ssh completion

ssh completion

[Claus Alboege]

Hi

Could anyone tell, how I get zsh to read hostnames from
~/.ssh/known_hosts instead of /etc/hosts using zstyle?

zstyle '*ssh*' hosts $(sed -e 's/ .*//' ~/.ssh/known_hosts)

Not perfect, but you should get the idea...

Here is a bit better one:

zstyle '*ssh*' hosts $(sed -e '/^#/d
s/ .*$//
s/,/ /g' /etc/ssh_known_hosts ~/.ssh/known_hosts)

That one gives me

sed: can't read /etc/ssh_known_hosts: No such file or directory

so it might be a good idea to redirect stderr.

Also, ~/.ssh/known_hosts is sometimes rewritten by ssh, so if the following
isn't too slow, you might try it -- it re-reads the files whenever the style
is tested:

zstyle -e ':completion:*:ssh:*' hosts \
	'reply=($(sed -e "/^#/d" -e "s/ .*\$//" -e "s/,/ /g" \
		/etc/ssh_known_hosts ~/.ssh/known_hosts 2>/dev/null))'

Finally, note that the above works for ssh version 1 and openssh, but not
for ssh2.
