Mac terminal new tag/window ssh re-enter password problem

Mac terminal by default in the opening of a new Tab/window need to re-enter the password ssh, very inconvenient. This article completes the setting in the Mac, realizes the clone session function in the Securecrt/xshell, namely opens a terminal SSH connection without re-entering the password.

The principle is very simple, open an SSH connection in the background, and later need to use SSH to the same host, the direct use of the connection socket file, no longer create a connection, the same, do not need to authenticate the user.

It is off by default and can be opened in ~/.ssh/config, adding the following code snippet:

Host *    ControlMaster auto    ControlPath ~/.ssh/master-%r@%h:%p

You can do it.
