rssh | route ssh through a series of hosts

rssh is a Shell library. rssh has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

route ssh through a series of hosts i.e. multi-hop (for if you / the servers are behind firewalls etc). This is a script to enable you to route ssh though a series of host to connect to your final host, and then either run as standard SSH, have a forward proxy, or run a command. The script reads any hosts you have in your standard ~/.ssh/config file and uses the main attributes for those hosts. It assumes that your config file is indented in a convetional manner i.e. The script works by creating a temporary ssh config file, with all the parameters needed, then running ssh with that. This enables you to then easily create a socks proxy or whatever you need.
