Description

Is there an existing issue for this bug?
  • I have searched the existing open issues and found none that apply.
  • If I find any issue of interest that is related or closed, I will included a link to it in this issue.
Required Troubleshooting Steps
  • I have read and performed the troubleshooting steps
  • I have tried both values of the remote.SSH.useLocalServer setting
  • My issue was not covered in the Tips and Tricks linked from the Troubleshooting Wiki.
  • I will include a complete copy of my Remote - SSH logs by running Remote-SSH: Show Log in the command palette or from View > Output in the menu bar
[Optional] Diagnose with Copilot

I did not ask the @remote-ssh participant for help

In step 2 of the troubleshooting wiki, what was the result of running the generated SSH command verbatim outside of VS Code?

I did not try step 2 of the troubleshooting steps
