Feature Request: Prompt for unlock pattern before connecting to host #446

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
It would be sweet if I could protect select hosts with a pattern in the case of 
the phone getting stolen, this would also eliminate the risk of connectbot 
connecting to a host while slipping around in the users pocket.

In the case where RSA keys are set up for passwordless login the hosts become 
very unsecure. It would be good if each host had a security option where they 
could individualy have a password/unlock pattern that the user would be 
prompted for before connecting.

Per-host is fine by me, but I think I'd rather have a pattern/pin to open the 
ConnectBot app at all. I don't like having a pattern/pin on my phone as a whole 
because I use it a lot and it gets irritating to unlock it every time I pick it 
up, but I use pub keys for all my ssh hosts and don't want anyone to be able to 
pick up my phone and ssh in to important systems.
