conecct with domain name insted of user and IP

The short answer is… you can configure the ssh client with a simple text file located here:

~/.ssh/config

(~ is a shortcut to your Ubuntu VM user’s home directory)

Inside that file these lines would provide the behavior you want:

Host subdomain.mydomain.com
    User my_user

Just as an aside, the /etc/ssh/sshd_config manages the SSH service running on an ubuntu server, not the ssh client you use to connect to one. /etc/ssh/ssh_config (no d in the filename) does allow you set global options for the ssh client to use but more typical in these cases is the per-user config mentioned above.

Hello, @k0r3n

If you use the ssh command without specifying the user a session will be created with the user that is currently in use on your Virtual Machine. This is the reason this works fine when you specify the username.

You can follow up the example above which or simply create an alias in your .bashrc profile for quick access.

You can open the file with any text editor:

sudo nano ~/.bashrc

and add the following line:

alias dropletssh='ssh my_user@Droplet_IP'

Save the file and exit. Then simply reload the .bashrc profile with this command:

source ~/.bashrc

Now if your type dropletssh in the command line (terminal) you will connect to your droplet.

Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
