Hi. I'm trying to test using SSH key to clone a test repository from the cmdline.. I'm screwing up something in following the different sires/examples to try to setup the SSH key to connect to "Github" for a user/repository. It appears that the "ssh -vT git@xxxxxxxxxx" cmd seems to always request a "passphrase" even though the ssh key was created without a passphrase. I've tried the following cmds on a number of different systems/OS, with the same results. the cmds are: ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C 'your@xxxxxxxxx' -f ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519 -q -N '' cat ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519.pub -- add the key to the github/ssh new key page (if you notice, no PASSPHRASE) the ssh private key file is added to the "config" file ssh -vT git@xxxxxxxxxx is run... . . . debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Trying private key: /home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g debug1: PEM_read_PrivateKey failed debug1: read PEM private key done: type <unknown> Enter passphrase for key '/home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g': debug1: No more authentication methods to try. Permission denied (publickey). which seems to ask for a passphrase!! and then it dies.. I've tried various OS flavors... looked over different sites.. Anyone with SSH/Fed/Github experience able to provide any thoughts/comments?? I'm sure I'm missing someting subtle, but I can't see it for now. thanks -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
