First cool thing that everybody knows already: Mac OSX is based on Unix so you get ssh out of the box. Second cool thing you may not know: OS X 10.5 actually also comes with an ssh key agent (ssh-agent). That means that, without any additional software (like PuTTY Agent on Windows.), Mac OSX can actually load an encrypted private key into memory and remember it for all subsequent connections. Third cool thing that almost seems too good to be true: ssh-agent can store the passwords of the encrypted keys into your keychain.
Than means that you have to tell it once to remember the decryption password for your key(s) like this: ssh-add -K.ssh/idwhateveryourrivatekeyis And next time you log into your mac and try to ssh somewhere, your private key will be loaded automagically (as long as your keychain is unlocked of course). Very groovy!! Hi, This is regarding SSH on MAC OSx 10.6. I have a WIN and a MAC box as SSH clients. I am required to login to a SSH enabled server LINUX1 from both these MAC and WIN boxes. Now I have another LINUXJump box which can be used as an intermediate jump box to ssh to LINUX1 from either MAC or WIN hosts. I have no issues logging in using ssh from WIN and MAC directly to LINUX1 hostbut when I use the LINUXJump box as an intermediate host to ssh to LINUX1I have a problem.
From WIN box (using Putty with pagent), everything is fineI am able to login to LINUX1 after getting onto the LINUXJump host. From MAC box, although I am able to ssh to LINUXJump hostbut when I want to ssh to LINUX1 from LINUXJump hostI am getting an error indicating “permission denied (public key)'. I am getting similar error when I am stopping the pagent on WIN machine and trying to ssh from WIN to LINUXJump and then to LINUX1. I observed that when pagent is not running both the MAC and WIN have the same issue. Doesnt make sense as I can directly ssh to LINUX1 from both MAC and WIN hosts. I ran the ssh login using verbose to see whats going on when pagent is not runningthe difference is that on WIN when pagent is not running and on MAC all the timeonce the authentication method is determined as keyboard interactive and public keyWIN machines offers public keywhereas MAC and WIN without pagent running will skip and look for pvt key idrsa instead which is not available on the intermediate host LINUXJump and fails.
I do not understand whats going on here. I read in some forums that we can use keychain to save the pvt key password and it will pass on the password to next sessions. Tried that but didnt work. Please let me know if you need more info.
