Description

If users have multiple ssh keys, they will need to specify an IdentityFile to point to the ssh key they have to use.

Host *.arvados
TCPKeepAlive yes
ServerAliveInterval 60
ProxyCommand ssh -p2222 -x -a $SSH_PROXY_FLAGS %h
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_yourkeyname

or something like that.

This is going to be a little tricky to do well, because there's no way to know the filename of the key the user ought to use, and getting it wrong means the connection won't work—even if it would work by using the default id_rsa or whatever.
