Example

To open a connection to the SSH server running in the first VM of the xjob called ubuntu:

pcocc nc -J ubuntu vm0 22

This is can be useful to simplify connections to pcocc VMs using SSH ProxyCommands. For example by adding the following content to the ~.ssh/config file:

Host ubuntu-vm0
ProxyCommand pcocc nc -J ubuntu vm0 22

It is possible to connect to the first VM of the job named ubuntu without relying on pcocc ssh:

ssh ubuntu-vm0
