  Great article, so many useful tips for.

  One small suggestion. I wouldn't recommend enabling ForwardAgent in your .ssh/config, since that could be a security risk if you connect to a malicious host. I would suggest that you use ssh -A when you need it, or enable ForwardAgent just for specific hosts.

  enable ForwardAgent just for specific hosts

  Good point. Thanks for suggesting this.

  I actually use WebDrive to do this, if anyone still happens to be looking for a reasonably-priced option. It is a bit less expensive than Expandrive (which I will admit I have never tried). But I've always had success with Webdrive and have been using it for years. www.webdrive.com

  For persistent connections I find it better to use the %C token in ControlPath. It produces a shorter string, so will help get around some path length restrictions. Also, that really ought not to be a path in a world-readable place like /tmp!

• Smylers commented on SSH Can Do That? Productivity Tips for Working with Remote Servers

  Both good ideas. %C didn't exist when I wrote the above.

  On a laptop only used by me, I was using /tmp/ (it avoids need to know your username to put in the config), but for shared computers it isn't a good idea.
