After upgrading to 7.3 autossh is failing using the following rc script
in /etc/rc.d/autossh.  It looks like maybe switching to $daemon_user is
not happening to find the correct ssh config stanzas? Thanks in advance
for any help.


## Startup configuration

#!/bin/ksh
# start autossh tunnel
# requires remoteuser user with $HOME/.ssh/config and keys

daemon="/usr/local/bin/autossh"
daemon_flags_1="-M 0 -f -N tun-remoteA"
daemon_flags_1="-M 0 -f -N tun-remoteB"
daemon_user="remoteuser"

. /etc/rc.d/rc.subr

rc_reload=NO

pexp="autossh:.*"

# Child will not return a config parsing error to the parent.
rc_start() {
        # use rcexec here since daemon_flags may contain arguments with spaces
        ${rcexec} "${daemon} ${daemon_flags_1}" && \
        ${rcexec} "${daemon} ${daemon_flags_1}"
}

rc_cmd $1


## User config

SSH config for the user in  ~remoteuser/.ssh/config everything looks good and
nothing has changed on this since being on 7.2.

Host tun-remoteA
  HostName remoteA.example.org
  AddressFamily inet
  User remoteuser
  IdentityFile /home/remoteuser/.ssh/id_rsa
  RemoteForward 32220 localhost:22
  ServerAliveInterval 15
  ServerAliveCountMax 3
  ExitOnForwardFailure yes

Host tun-remoteB
  HostName remoteB.example.org
  AddressFamily inet
  User remoteuser
  IdentityFile /home/remoteuser/.ssh/id_rsa
  RemoteForward 32220 localhost:22
  ServerAliveInterval 15
  ServerAliveCountMax 3
  ExitOnForwardFailure yes
