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.useLocalServersetting - 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 could NOT successfully SSH to the remote machine, and the error was DIFFERENT than what I saw in VS Code

Research direction
