Hi all,
I have this working on a ReadyNAS (I didn't set it up, but it works from the same client shell I am trying to use on to TrueNAS). If I have ssh clients configured in my ~/.ssh folder, I am able to auto-complete (with a tab) on my ReadyNAS:
Code:
scp readynas:/mnt[TAB]
will auto-complete
Code:
scp truenas:/mnt[TAB]
does not

the entries in ~/.ssh/config are identical

I am using the same shell from the client, so I don't think that is the issue.

Any suggestions would be most welcome!

I just tried this from a debian 10.9 box and I got this working with both a TrueNAS SCALE 22.02.0.1 box and a TrueNAS CORE 12.0-U8 box once I added the debian box's ssh key to the .authorized_keys on each TrueNAS and set up an entry in .ssh/config for each of the TrueNAS on the debian box.

I copied the .ssh folder from the working host to TrueNAS and it is now working there (should have thought of that earlier!)

I assumed that because I was already able to ssh to the TrueNAS, it should have worked the same.
