Hi,

I just wanted to do a script that get's a linode label and SSH's into the lish console with LINODE_ID@fremontHOST_ID.linode.com , but I saw that the linode.list method doesn't respond with the host of the linode.

If possible, that would be a great feature

Thanks,
Bar.

You can use linode.ip.list to get both the IP address and reverse DNS hostname (for each IP) of that linode. Get the linode ID from linode.list.

http://www.linode.com/api/linode/linode.ip.list

How does the RDNS or the IP address helps to connect to the Lish SSH?

I believe I need the linode ID (which I have), and the host itself (fremont383 for example), which I don't have (and this is my feature request ).

The host is only useful if you want to use lish, and that's only for emergencies anyhow. There's no reason to use lish over SSH if you can SSH directly to your linode.

Correct.

My feature request is for emergency use. A script that will query the API and SSH via Lish on emergencies, so I won't have to go into the Linode Manager (sometimes it's hard, for example from a mobile device).

Just a feature request, that's all
