psmsshproxy suport

[nckbgov]

Hi, I am looking how to access file systems via a psmsshproxy. Its syntax obliges me to define my connections in the ssh config file. Does your (great and very useful) extension ready host configurations from the ssh config file?

Otherwise, would you add additional connection parameters in the plugin settings like: RemoteCommand and RequestTTY?

Thanks!

I see the first proposal is in your todo list: "Allow loading (or automatically use) sessions from .ssh/config" 👍

The extension currently supports proxies in two ways:

• SOCKS4/SOCKS5 (as requested in #4, although documentation should be added, as mentioned in #38)
• Connection hopping by using other servers as waypoints (see #7)

I'm not familiar with psmsshproxy. Are you talking about PSMP from CyberArk or something similar?

I'm planning in looking into using external programs for SSH connections, e.g. ssh and plink/psftp, which should work fine for creating a shell/terminal once I add that in, but makes it tricky for actual file transfer, which is the main goal of this extension.
