################################################################################
# File:   SSH client configuration
# Author: Matt Ward
################################################################################

Host wopr
HostName wopr.example.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_wopr
User mward

# This is the ssh client system-wide configuration file.  See
# ssh_config(5) for more information.  This file provides defaults for
# users, and the values can be changed in per-user configuration files
# or on the command line.

# Configuration data is parsed as follows:
#  1. command line options
#  2. user-specific file
#  3. system-wide file
# Any configuration value is only changed the first time it is set.
