Does not work with Windows <1803 #19

Closed elipsion closed 5 years ago

elipsion commented 5 years ago

Program exits cleanly without any errors when AF_UNIX is not present on the operating system. Some kind of warning inside a catch block, maybe?

benpye commented 5 years ago

Does it work with --winssh in that case, I believe it should as the native OpenSSH client only uses a named pipe. It should only fail for --wsl

elipsion commented 5 years ago

The native OpenSSH client was also introduced in 1803, so even tho the pipe might work, the ssh command is not available.

You can try the releases at https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/releases , I believe they should work in a downlevel OS but I haven't ever tried.

benpye commented 5 years ago

Closing this for now. If you find it doesn't work downlevel with the new Go version https://github.com/benpye/wsl-ssh-pageant/releases/tag/050219 please let me know.
