Add support for key-based authentication #16

Closed duck57 closed 8 years ago

duck57 commented 8 years ago

Currently (as of the 2.05 dev version), all authentication is done via passwords. Adding support for key-based authentication will allow MacFusion to play nicer with servers which use that.

While unofficial, this is actually supported, if you setup you .ssh/config file and describe the filepath to your key, MacFusion should be able to use that directly.

In case anyone runs into this in the future: make sure that the Host you have with your IdentityFile in .ssh/config is the same as the line you have as the Host in MacFusion. Don't enter a password in the setup and don't add IdentityFile .ssh/config to the Extra Options, or else it won't work. It will mount your server nicely with that set-up.

Thanks for the information @duck57.
