|
| I have a user acount on a unix system and I'd like to be able to ssh from that system to the box at my house, without having to remember my IP. Is there some equivalent of /etc/hosts that is specific to my user account (like ~/.hosts or something)? Thanks. |

Not that I know of, but you could add a line to your .bashrc:
| Code: | | alias sshhome="ssh 0.0.0.0" |
Where 0.0.0.0 is the actual ip address you want to ssh to, your computer at home. Then just type "sshhome" on a bash shell. |
