you are all confused :) Sean talks about storing the passphrase for SSH, not the HTTPS user/pass. Nevertheless both, passphrase and user/pass needs to be stored on Pharo and then they are not safe.
Now, how can we reliable store passwords in Pharo? This is a good thing we need to solve before blame Iceberg :P So far, we can do just two things to avoid this problem: - do not store the passwords on Pharo, which means we need to introduce them each time we use it (not very confortable… and btw this can be not working on ssh mode, I didn’t test). - use ssh keys without password protection. I have to be honest: since I never used password protection of ssh keys in my life, I never seen this problem until Norbert pointed it to me :P I will be glad to have a general solution for password storing in Pharo. But that would be like creating a keychain, isn’t? Also, the openness of our system makes the problem even harder… :S cheers, Esteban > On 31 Aug 2017, at 10:29, Denis Kudriashov <dionisi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > But ssh agent not working for you? > > I work with Iceberg without extra configuration in image.
