I have some aliases for ssh, example:
alias buildWork="ssh work '~/build_app'"
The problem is that the ssh
command passes some variables like $LC_CTYPE
that causes some errors.
How to prevent that and use the server configurations ?
The first way to disconnect from an SSH session is with the exit command. Issue this command on the remote terminal that you are currently logged in to. The second way to disconnect from an SSH session is with the logout command.
It sounds like your SSH client is configured to forward the locale settings. You can prevent this by altering your configuration (the global file is typically /etc/ssh/ssh_config
):
# comment out / remove the following line SendEnv LANG LC_*
Alternatively you can change the configuration of the server, by editing /etc/ssh/sshd_config
on the remote machine (note the d in sshd_config
):
# comment out / remove the following line AcceptEnv LANG LC_*
As already explained in other answers, the client will send all environment variables specified via SendEnv
in /etc/ssh/ssh_config
. You can also force ssh
to not send already defined variable names, using your user's configuration.
From OpenSSH man page:
It is possible to clear previously set SendEnv variable names by prefixing patterns with -. The default is not to send any environment variables.
So, to prevent sending your locale, you can put the following into your ~/.ssh/config
:
SendEnv -LC_* -LANG*
