Ignasi Barrera commented on JCLOUDS-433:
----------------------------------------
The issue can be easily bypassed by delegating the authentication to the
ssh-agent, and providing a {{LoginCredentials}} without any password or
privatekey populated.
> Unhandled error when reading RSA private keys with strong encryption

> Project: jclouds
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: jclouds-core
> Affects Versions: 1.7.0
> Reporter: Ignasi Barrera
> Assignee: Ignasi Barrera
> Priority: Minor
>
> When using the ComputeService to run scripts on a set of nodes and the
> LoginCredentials are populated with a private key, an unhandled error appears
> if the key is an RSA key encrypted using strong encryption such as AES.
> When the private key is read, the following error appears:
> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: DER length more than 4 bytes: 72
