@cutec-chris looks like your are not using vscodium desktop as a client but maybe code-oss? then please follow this comment

I just installed version 0.0.37 of open-remote-ssh on VSCodium v 1.78.2. I have my .ssh/config file set up so that I can do ssh remotemachine from a terminal. However, when I try to have VSCodium open that machine remotely it fails to open. Here's the log:

[Info  - 18:23:41.145] Resolving ssh remote authority 'ssh-remote+devdesktop' (attemp #1)

Do you have any advice as to why this is failing? I should also note the permission on the key is 600. Appreciate any advice you can give! :)

Hi @davidtbo, I have some questions,

• what's your local OS?
• does your key has a passphrase?
• is it added to the ssh-agent?
• can you share the logs when connecting from a normal terminal using ssh -v devdesktop to check how it does authentication there?

[davidtbo]

Local OS is Mac 13.4 Ventura. No passphrase. I can do ssh remotemachine on the terminal and it works, but VSCodium won't connect to it with the plugin.

I'm not sure about adding it to an ssh-agent.

Here are the logs from my terminal:

Ok looks like you are using certificate based auth, that's currently not supported, I'll create a separate issue for it.
