What I actually want to do at this particular moment is log onto my web server as www-data and change to different directories according to what I want to edit, e.g. :-
'info' - logs me on to the server as www-data and takes me to /var/www/info 'boat' - logs me on to the server as www-data and takes me to /var/www/boat etc.
Yes, I know it's rather trivial, but I find this sort of thing very useful.
Sounds like making a mountain out of a mole hill to me, when all you have to do upon initial log in is 'cd /to/the/dir' thats all your going to cut out?
I can't see you doing;
www-data@machine info
www-data@machine boat
as you can't parse an argument to an interactive session? I.e. AFAIK you either 'ssh user@machine' and have an interactive session or parse arguments that are executed and thats it, you can't parse an argument and have an interactive session I don't believe.
