** Description changed:
I have a pair of ssh config entires which look like:
Host host1
- User serge
- ProxyCommand none
+ User serge
+ Identityfile host1key
+ ProxyCommand none
Host cloud-*
- User ubuntu
- StrictHostKeyChecking no
- IdentityFile ~/some/path/cloudkey
- ProxyCommand ssh host1 nc -q0 %h.cloud %p
+ User ubuntu
+ StrictHostKeyChecking no
+ IdentityFile ~/some/path/cloudkey
+ ProxyCommand ssh host1 nc -q0 %h.cloud %p
- If I'm logged in through unity, ssh -vvv shows that it tries all of the
- ssh keys under ~/.ssh instead of trying ~/some/path/cloudkey. I assume
- ssh would eventually get to trying cloudkey, but the remote end refuses
- the login before getting to that. It should try cloudkey first.
+ If I'm logged in through unity, ssh -vvv cloud-* shows that it tries all
+ of the ssh keys under ~/.ssh instead of the named IdentityFile. I
+ assume ssh would eventually get to trying host1key, but the remote end
+ (host1) refuses the login before getting to that. It should try
+ the listed IdentityFile first.
- If I'm logged into a different window manager (say, dwm), with ssh-agent
- running, but where i have to manually run ssh-add, then it works fine.
+ Note:
+ I had a set of password-less keys under ~/.ssh for testing purposes.
+ gnome-keyring-daemon auto-loads those, so that doing 'ssh-add -D'
+ doesn't help. When not running gnome-keyring-daemon, you can avoid
+ this by only loading the needed keys into the ssh-agent.
