NAME

debvm-waitssh - Wait for a ssh server to be reachable

SYNOPSIS

debvm-waitssh [-q] [-t timeout] [hostname:]port

DESCRIPTION

debvm-waitssh can be used to wait for a virtual machine with exposed ssh port to be reachable on that port. If no hostname is given, 127.0.0.1 is assumed. No authentication is attempted by debvm-waitssh, so neither a username nor a key have to be supplied.

-q, --quiet

Be quiet. Do not output a message when the timeout has been reached without success.

EXIT VALUES

	0		The server is reachable.
	1		A timeout was reached before the server answered.
	2		Usage error.
