SSM - SIMPLE SSH MANAGER
                      - Elliot

About

I am learning Go and wanted to make something useful. I have a lot of servers that I need to SSH into and I wanted a way to manage them, so I decided to make a simple SSH manager.

NOTE This is still a work in progress so there may be bugs. Please feel free to report them

Installation

go install github.com/elliot40404/ssm/cmd/ssm@latest

OR download the binary from the releases

OR go the docker way

NOTE: You will need to mount your ssh directory to the container You can do this by adding -v <path to ssh dir>:/root/.ssh to the docker command You need to run this in an interactive terminal

docker run --rm  -it -v C:/Users/elliot/.ssh:/root/.ssh elliot404/ssm --help

Directory structure

/home/elliot/.ssh
├── config *
├── config.d *
│   ├── compute
│   └── homelab
├── known_hosts
├── id_rsa // private key **
└── id_rsa.pub // public key **

* - Required

** SSH keys are not required if you use password authorization

SSH keys can be generated with ssh-keygen

Config file ~/.ssh/config

# WORK SERVERS
Include config.d/compute

Example file in config.d ~/.ssh/config.d/compute

  HostName 192.168.0.110
