I would like to connect to each server using the root user and to machin server using me user.
I edit .ssh/config
User root
Host machin
Hostname machin
User me
When I type
ssh machin
I get
root@machin's password:
What is wrong with my config?
According to the ssh_config manual page:
Since the first obtained value for each parameter is used, more host-specific declarations should be given near the beginning of the file, and general defaults at the end.
You should change the order of your configuration values, first set the host-specific ones then the general ones:
Host machin
Hostname machin
User me
User root
