Bug#610590: openssh: support for host:port format
Package: openssh-client
Version: 1:5.5p1-6
Severity: wishlist
It would be nice if the openssh-client can support the host:port format. Allmost each client for any protocoll supports this. That means, that ssh can parse a "user@host:port" parameter and scp a "user@host:port/file".
(Yes, i know, that i can specify the port with -p and -P, however the support for the format descriped above as additional feature would be a nice thing too)
Greetings,
Michael Stummvoll
