Latest Update Ruined SSH

[TheRealJamesRussell]

I used the built in SSH from cursor.

New Update. Updated.

Try and access my vps?

Forced me to install the VSCode SSH extension.

Don't want to. it's a built in feature.

Built in feature force installs extension

Use extension? Doesn't work. Same error over and over and over:

[Sanger2000]

does this work in vscode?

It looks like there are bad permissions on the .ssh/config file on your device from the error

[Jonas-Metzger]

exact same issue.

Permissions of the config file are definitely not the issue. Not restricted in any way, and unchanged relative to when everything was working under the earlier versions of cursor.

[markrado123]

Can anyone send me penultimate version of the cursor for macbook m3? The latest version is not working with SSH.

[loranger]

Same here. “More robust SSH” says the changelog… No more SSH says the 0.35.1 :(
