Hello, I've written a little module on top of paramiko to use either remote command execution, sftp_put or sftp_get. It simplifies the task.
To connect to the remote side, in case of the remote command execution, I rely on my ssh agent in the background. But I have multiple key's on my machine. After I switched from Mac back to Linux I'm facing a problem with this. My key's are all set up and the keychain works fine. However, using the module results in the seahorse (I use Ubuntu 9.04, 64bit) pop-up Window asking me to decrypt a key. That key is not the key I use for the connection and it is not a key that is added to the ssh-agent. My connection is established like this in the module I wrote: <<< client = paramiko.SSHClient() client.load_system_host_keys() client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy()) client.connect(hostname='$host_ip', key_filename='$path/to/key.key',username='root',look_for_keys=False) >>> and that is when the keyring tool pop's up and ask's me to decrypt a complete different key. I thought by specifying a key and by setting look_for_keys=False I pretty much narrowed the number of keys paramiko would use down to exactly the specified one. BTW the error after canceling the request is: paramiko.SSHException: No existing session I thought about using pkey instead but after I tried and created a pkey object I get: paramiko.PasswordRequiredException: Private key file is encrypted Then I tried skipping the wrapper and using paramiko.Transport to do the connec. But After having the right key to use I get: RuntimeError: thread already started How to go about this? How to tell paramiko to use the specified key and no other? I hope someone can help me or point me in the right direction. Regards Philipp
