Damien Miller <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #1 from Damien Miller <[email protected]> --- What's happening here is that the ed25519 key is a new-style OpenSSH format private key that contains the comment where ssh-add can easily get at it, and the RSA key is an olde-style PEM format that doesn't. We could in theory go looking for the comment in the private key's corresponding .pub file if it exists, but it complicates key loading considerably - we'd need to find the file, read and parse it and check that it matched the private key. I don't think we want to do this. You could try converting your RSA key to a new-style one while re-specifying the comment (ssh-keygen -opf /path -C "your comment"). The new key format offers better protection against passphrase cracking too. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching someone on the CC list of the bug.
