dsl-gui ssh login fails when a passphase is used to secure access to the private keys #4

Closed moeller0 closed 2 years ago

So I "secured" access to my private keys behind a passphrase and the CLI application sort of works:

computer:go-dsl user$ ./dsl

but when I try the same with dsl-gui I get a prompt "The device requests a password" which neither accepts: 1) an empty password 2) the modems password 3) my ssh passphrase:

computer:go-dsl user$ ./dsl-gui 
setting password failed: no password required
setting password failed: no password required
setting password failed: no password required

Which is a pity as the 4 "spectral" plots are really nice and informative.

Looks like the web/GUI client switched to the wrong state when a passphrase is required.

This should be fixed now. Can you check if it works?

Thanks, now the dialog request makes sense and accepts my passphrase, after which the GUI works as intended.

Thanks again!
