I have a vm that I use as development environment, my laptop is just a dumb terminal. I need to check out code there. It's not a jump host.

- aexaey 11y agoIf you have clean network path from your terminal to the dev vm, why need for either ProxyCommand or ForwardAgent - just ssh to the vm directly, no? Of course local, not forwarded ssh-agent on the terminal would be super-handy to avoid typing pass-phrase time and again; but that's different and independent from ForwardAgent.
- Xylakant 11y agoI do ssh directly to the VM. It sits behind a VPN connection at aws. I need to make ssh connections from there to github. The key resides on a smartcard in my laptops usb slot. And that's where ssh-agent/ForwardAgent comes into play. I forward my local key to the remote VM.
