Thanks for doing that Jonas!

Folks, version 0.2.1 of ssh-forever now supports -p PORT

Hi Jonas,

The code is open source and you should be able to hack it pretty easily to do what you want. If you fork the code on github and submit a patch I can build it into the main gem.

How do I do that?

Hi Rex,

Fear not. It uses << to append your public key to the existing authorized_keys file on the server, same as if you’d copied and pasted it in by hand. So nothing will get over-written, no.

do you just write over it?

Yes I did actually discover ssh-copy-id as I was polishing off the gem. Pretty nice, and it has the added flexibility of being able to use a custom file for your public key, but it’s not installed on Mac OS X by default, and hopefully ssh-forever is pretty easy to install – that was the idea.
