Tips and tricks

SSH auth with password fails

On some sshd configuration (Mac OS X Mavericks), if PasswordAuthentication is not explicitly set to yes, ssh server will not allow non-interactive password authentication. See this issue for more in-depth information.

Agent authentication when using SSH

The package uses ssh2 to connect to ssh servers, and also use the default construct in this package to authenticate with an agent. On Windows, the agent will be set to "pageant", otherwise it assumes a \ix system and uses "process.env['SSH_AUTH_SOCK']" to get the agent. This can be overriden in the settings.
