[joe@pavilion.net, joe@uk.freebsd.org, joe@tao.org.uk] Yah, it would be really nice if ssh did too... I have a box with five IP addresses on it, some externally routed, some NAT'd, some internal, and ssh'ing out from it without being able to bind to a specific IP makes setting up security difficult. It's utterly trivial to add, but I don't have time myself. It is possible to use a jail to force the source IP address, but jail's do not appear to work well with interactive tty's. ssh gets really confused when run from a jail. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
