Dear Group:
I previously posted this problem to the libcurl group and after
considering it, think it might actually be a libssh2 problem.
The general problem is that if my private key is encrypted--with
a passphrase, I can't complete authentication with the SSH
server using libssh. The situation is similar to the normal
Linux scenario where ssh-add is used to automatically
supply the passphrase for non-interactive applications.
Some details are as follows: I am using the libcurl
curl_easy_set_opt() routine with CURLOPT_KEYPASSWD
to pass the passphrase with no special syntax. I receive
error code 67 and the diagnostic:
"SSH public key authentication failed: Unable to initialize
private key from file"
Do you have any insight about this problem ?
Best Regards,
Paul R.
