Browse for SSH servers in a specified domain
SYNOPSIS
bssh [options] [host]
DESCRIPTION
bssh is not a standard Linux command included in major distributions such as Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, or CentOS. Searches in common repositories and man pages yield no results for a utility named bssh.
It may refer to a custom script, alias, or third-party tool in specific environments, such as high-performance computing (HPC) clusters for batch SSH operations (e.g., similar to pdsh or pssh suites). Alternatively, it could be a misspelling or shorthand for bash over SSH or ssh with binding options.
To investigate on your system:
• Run which bssh or type bssh to check if it's an executable or alias.
• Use man bssh or bssh --help if available.
• Check package managers like apt search bssh or yum search bssh.
Without a standard implementation, usage is undefined and potentially insecure if sourced from untrusted locations. For secure remote access, use the standard ssh(1) from OpenSSH instead. No official documentation, options, or behavior can be reliably documented here.
CAVEATS
Not a standard command; may not exist on your system. Avoid unverified custom versions due to security risks.
Possibly confused with ssh or batch tools like pdsh.
VERIFICATION STEPS
Execute command -v bssh to confirm presence. If found, inspect with file $(which bssh) and review source.
ALTERNATIVES
Use ssh for secure shell access or parallel-ssh tools like pssh for batch operations.
HISTORY
No official history; absent from Linux standards (POSIX, SUS). May appear in niche HPC tools or custom setups post-2000s, but undocumented in mainstream development.
