tmate v2.4.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-11-16 // over 4 years ago

  • 🆕 New Features:

    • Add support for named sessions. Run tmate with tmate -k api_key -n session_name -r session_name_ro to name sessions. See https://tmate.io/#named_sessions
    • Add a foreground mode with tmate -F. This is useful when tmate is used only for remote access. See https://tmate.io/#remote_access
    • 👀 Add SSH key access control. Run tmate with -a authorized_keys or set tmate-authorized-keys in the tmate configuration file. This will allow access to tmate to only SSH clients with keys contained in the authorized keys file. See https://tmate.io/#access_control
