SSH bookmark manager for Linux

When running ssh myalias from the command line, you can use a file named config in your ~/.ssh folder, or a file /etc/ssh/ssh_config. Here, you can configure things such as which real host name, user name and keys to use. Like:

# Use the private key "my-private-key" when logging in to myhost.com
# On the command line, just type: ssh myalias
Host myalias
HostName myhost.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/my-private-key
User myname

If you're not using keys: I can see there's a PasswordAuthentication option too, but I doubt you can also set the password itself in that file.


Try Asbru Connection Manager https://github.com/asbru-cm/asbru-cm / https://www.asbru-cm.net/

Perfect for Ubuntu!! ;)

(note that Asbru is a fork of PAC Manager, which is now no longer maintained [1])

Gnome Connection Manager is definately worth a try. it offers some interesting features and is usable, though it's not quiet mature yet.
