Putty for mac osx7/25/2023 ![]() Doesnt make sense as I can directly ssh to LINUX1 from both MAC and WIN hosts. I observed that when pagent is not running both the MAC and WIN have the same issue. 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. From MAC box, although I am able to ssh to LINUXJump host…but when I want to ssh to LINUX1 from LINUXJump host…I am getting an error indicating “permission denied (public key)”. From WIN box (using Putty with pagent), everything is fine…I am able to login to LINUX1 after getting onto the LINUXJump host. I have no issues logging in using ssh from WIN and MAC directly to LINUX1 host…but when I use the LINUXJump box as an intermediate host to ssh to LINUX1…I have a problem. 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 am required to login to a SSH enabled server LINUX1 from both these MAC and WIN boxes. ![]() I have a WIN and a MAC box as SSH clients. ssh/id_whatever_your_rivate_key_isĪnd 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).Ĭomments from long ago: # Comment from: srini # Than means that you have to tell it once to remember the decryption password for your key(s) like this: ssh-add -K. ![]() Third cool thing that almost seems too good to be true: ssh-agent can store the passwords of the encrypted keys into your keychain. 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… Second cool thing you may not know: OS X 10.5 actually also comes with an ssh key agent (ssh-agent). First cool thing that everybody knows already: Mac OSX is based on Unix so you get ssh out of the box. ![]()
