Is this still unresolved? Also having issues figuring out how to use the yubikey with this extension. For the ssh fs
extension theres an option in the configuration to specify the environment variable that solves the problem of providing a key.
It seems this extension has been retired... :cry:
Environment
Summary
This extension seems to require an actual private key to be present. This means that using an agent for key management is not supported. Couldnt the extension just utilize OpenSSH of OS to make the connection? This would eliminate the need for a custom
servers.json
file.The
~/.ssh/config
file already has the options available and is well established. It great for users of SSH for servers they interact with. This would also allow OpenSSH to handle key and password gathering. So I could use my Yubikey and GPG-agent for the SSH authentication(Refer to benpye/wsl-ssh-pageant for gpg-agent integration with Windows OpenSSH, refer to drduh/YubiKey-Guide for Yubikey GPG guide)
Reproduce steps
Try using with agent
Expected Results
It uses standard SSH to connect and run commands (maybe using Agent-Forward if needed)
Actual Results
It asks for path to a private key (Which doesnt exist on my computer, for security reasones). I am sad because it I have hit a road-block.
