TeraTerm and ssh Keys
Am I missing something, or is it not possible to assign an ssh key pair to a specific system? Every time I bring up TeraTerm to log into one or another of the machines I manage, it always puts the same ssh key information in the login username field. Does TeraTerm not have a way of implementing the keyring concept? Or can I get away with putting more than one ID in one public key file on the local system where TeraTerm runs? Or, barring all of the above, is there a better Windows-based terminal program to use that manages this better? What I'd ultimately like is to have a scrollable list of username and private key combinations to pick from, and pick from them by system I want to log into. IN other words, if I say I want to log onto foo, show me only keys (usernames) for foo. I've seen and worked with terminal and ssh FTP programs that work this way, but they've been on other platforms in the past.
Hi, I use secure Crt which seems to handle this fine but there is a 99 dollar price tag. I am a jaws user and it seems to work with with Chris N's scripts. I am not sure on how it works with windoweyes and no the last time I tried it didn't work on the mac at all. I also don't know if the Linux versions work. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Steve Matzura Sent: Monday, November 2, 2015 8:23 AM To: sysadmin <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] TeraTerm and ssh Keys Am I missing something, or is it not possible to assign an ssh key pair to a specific system?
