When logging in via SSH, I'd like to know, during the execution of .bashrc, the name of the host that is connecting.
Ubuntu Server shows the prompt:
Last login: Fri Feb 14 11:34:55 2014 from somehost.local
...so this information is available somewhere.
How can I access it?
If you type:
who
You'll see information about the logged in users. Amongst other things, you can see the host they're logged from. For instance, right now my laptop returns this:
who -u
darent tty6 2014-02-14 01:15 11:02 20339
darent tty7 2014-02-14 23:15 antic 31827 (:0)
darent pts/7 2014-02-14 23:14 00:46 30246 (helena.local)
darent pts/1 2014-02-14 23:16 . 1466 (:0)
darent pts/9 2014-02-14 23:19 00:25 302 (:0)
Where helena.local is the computer from which I'm connected trough ssh.
