Mike Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-745:
---------------------------------------
I wonder if perhaps libssh would magically support this without us having to
manually parse provided keys.
> Add support for OpenSSH private key format
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GUACAMOLE-745
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-745
> Project: Guacamole
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: guacd, SSH
> Environment: Docker official images 1.0.0
> Reporter: Julien Nicoulaud
> Priority: Minor
>
> Since OpenSSH 7.8, {{ssh-keygen}} does not generate keys in PEM format by
> default anymore: [https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.8]
> Attempting to use keys in the new format in Guacamole does not work, and does
> not print any helpful error message even in debug mode:
> {code:java}
> guacd_1 | guacd[296]: DEBUG: Attempting private key import
> (WITHOUT passphrase)
> guacd_1 | guacd[296]: DEBUG: Initial import failed: (null)
> guacd_1 | guacd[296]: DEBUG: Re-attempting private key import
> (WITH passphrase)
> guacd_1 | guacd[296]: ERROR: Auth key import failed: (null){code}
> It would be nice if keys in OpenSSH new format were supported. At least a
> more helpful error message should be printed (like "unrecognized key format").
