Sorry, that was poorly phrased. I mean I'd like a an alias or nickname
by which to refer to otherwise rather unreadable ip address/port
combinations.
~/.ssh/config provides an example:
Host test
Port 4500
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_test
HostName 216.34.181.45
LocalForward 5222 localhost:5222
This server can be accessed by simply executing 'ssh test'.
