I'm implementing libssh2 for iPhone application. And from the application, i'll 
allow a user to access remote machine and fire commands on terminal. But to use 
libssh2, i need to authenticate user first and then channel and session can be 
created, you can take a look at API. But I need is to establish session and 
channel by authenticating user with private key. So, i need to implement 
private key in my application. So, is this possible with libssh2? This is 
critical.
