NAME

dbclient - lightweight SSH2 client

SYNOPSIS

dbclient [-Tt] [-p port] [-i id] [-L l:h:r] [-R l:h:r] [-l user] host

DESCRIPTION

dbclient is a SSH 2 client designed to be small enough to be used in small memory environments, while still being functional and secure enough for general use.

OPTIONS

-p port: Remote port. Connect to port port on the remote host. Default is 22.
-i idfile: Identity file. Read the identity from file idfile (multiple allowed).
-L listenport:host:port: Local port forwarding. Forward the port listenport on the local host through the SSH connection to port port on the host host.
-R listenport:host:port: Remote port forwarding. Forward the port listenport on the remote host through the SSH connection to port port on the host host.
-l user: Username. Login as user on the remote host.
-t: Allocate a pty.
-T: Don't allocate a pty.
-N: Don't request a remote shell or run any commands. Any command arguments are ignored.
-f: Fork into the background after authentication. A command argument (or -N) is required. This is useful when using password authentication.
-g: Allow non-local hosts to connect to forwarded ports. Applies to -L and -R forwarded ports, though remote connections to -R forwarded ports may be limited by the ssh server.
-y: Always accept hostkeys if they are unknown. If a hostkey mismatch occurs the connection will abort as normal.
