Answer 1

For example my SSH config ~/.ssh/config file to connect with DigitalOcean with Remote Forward looks like:

Host DigitalOcean
  Hostname xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  User username
  RemoteForward 52698 localhost:52698

and is called in a terminal

ssh DigitalOcean

rmate then connects fine with my local Atom editor

Answer 2

I had the same issue and here is what works for me. If you have multiple servers you want this to work for, do the following as exactly shown here:

Host *
  RemoteForward 52698 localhost:52698

I consulted this link: configure SSH config file and realized you can use * in config file.

Wildcards are also available to allow for options that should have a broader scope.
