question on vpn connect

[flutist599]

hi, wow this is a great piece of help; though I have 2 questions

*you say enable SASH_USE_VPN=true goes to private IP; I have so:

Dominiks-MacBook-Air:sash dsimm$ env | grep -i vpn
SASH_USE_VPN=true
Dominiks-MacBook-Air:sash dsimm$ clear_sash
Dominiks-MacBook-Air:sash dsimm$ sash production-main-ingestion
Connecting to production-main-ingestion (52.16.5.182)

I would expect a 10.x.x.x IP

2.) any chance to not use .pem files to connect? just with ssh private key?

connecting to demo-main-encoder (54.171.70.3)

• ssh -i /Users/dsimm/.aws/kuba.pem ubuntu@54.171.70.3
  Warning: Identity file /Users/dsimm/.aws/kuba.pem not accessible: No such file or directory.

I don't have "kuba.pem" key this is the key of the person who set it up; but on the host itself my public key is there..

Thanks for your support!

1. I have not (as far as I can recall) implemented a SASH_USE_VPN flag. Current implementation assumes only that if there is no public IP, use the private IP (in the configurations of VPNs I've worked with, instances inside the VPN had non public IP at all)
2. That is a good idea I did not yet implement.

Feel free to implement your suggestions. I would gladly add any pull requests which include good features (like the one you suggest) with a good usage documentation in the Readme.
