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 ?
As this is the libssh2 group and mailing list, can you please provide a
libssh2-using code/example that repeats the problem without using libcurl?
Perhaps you can build one based on one of the many examples we provide in the
tarball.
