Store passwords for each ssh entry #91

Closed DanyC97 closed 9 years ago

Hi,

First congrat for the app, is very tidy/ useful indeed!

Although ssh_config does offer the chance to login in using the key sometimes the only option is via password. Unfortunately this can't be done via ssh_config hence i was wonder if you would consider to store the password in a different file and source it when the pass is asked for?

Or maybe you have a different idea which can sort out this use case. As inspiration you can look at SSH Shuttle app which can easily work with sshpass in the cmd param

this is only possible if storm wraps SSH connections behind the scenes. currently it does not.

It will require additional work and change the real cause of the project - which is serving a convenient way to handle SSH configs.

thanks for the suggestion but I don't think storm should cover that feature.
