4 years ago According to this reference: https://fileinfo.com/extension/dms the extension is a problem with Safari. Although
- Remove the dms extension from the downloaded file
- I moved it to ~/Applications
- chmod +x kssh-mac
- Accept the file in the security settings as OSX will reject to run in
- And you can use it.
I assume something can be improved on the documentation as the download is easy to miss in the first place (it is not a link, although in the Github source it seems to be one?). And I assume there might be a way to convince Safari to download it without this renaming?
The documentation for this project is very poor. Few specific examples.
On the Keybase SSH announcement blog post it says
See the Getting Started directions on Github for information about setting up and deploying the Keybase SSH CA bot, with Getting Started linking to https://github.com/keybase/bot-sshca#getting-started, which is no longer a valid URL. It looks like that URL needs to be updated to https://keybase-ssh-ca-bot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html instead.On that Getting Started page it says
Now download the kssh binary and start SSHing! See https://github.com/keybase/bot-sshca/releases to download the most recent version of kssh for your platform. But when downloading the macOS version it downloads a .dms file. Which seems really weird, and a file format that I have never seen before, nor does Google seem to have much solid information on (one link I found on Google said the solution is to rename to .dmg, which I do not believe is accurate in this case, but if it is, that is something Keybase should correct on their end). So I tried to make this file executable,chmod +x kssh-mac.dms, then ran it./kssh-mac.dms, but I got a dialog that says“kssh-mac.dms” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.What am I missing here?
