I am using a ssh host alias, as in:
.ssh/config
Host my-git-host
HostName github.com
And the command-line git works for push/pull/clone using my-git-host as a remote etc.
But would this also work through libgit2 as is ?
I am using an application that uses libgit2 and it fails to push/pull with an error - as though it were trying to dns resolve my-git-host.
thx,
ok, I think I discovered the application I'm using uses git2-rs which uses libgit2 but perhaps not with ssh support.
thx

i have searched around this problem for a while now but didnt find anything that helps.
We are using ansible to automate our Juniper devices and therefore use the ansible juniper modules. When i try to use "junos_facts" for example, i can execute it without problems on host1, but on host2 i get either a PasswordRequiredException or an AuthenticationException when i add -k in the cli
TASK [proact-junos-test : Gather JunOS facts] ***************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [host2]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "PasswordRequiredException('Private key file is encrypted')"}
ok: [host1]
i tried every possible combination of parameters in cli, in ansible.cfg, in the playbook itself. For some reason it works on one host but not the other. I have deployed the same key on both host and have it stored in my ssh-agent. I can ssh to both hosts without a problem.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks
For anyone having the same issue, the problem was that the remote host didn't accept my SSH key algorithm, because, since Paramiko 2.9, it was deprecated.
So, I installed Paramike 2.8.1 and it worked
As far as I can understand, the problem is that ssh key is encrypted. Try to add ssh key to ssh agent (if you have it).
If you don't have, there is a simple trick:
eval $(ssh-agent)
ssh-add path/to/private/ssh/key
ansible ...
If you are running this in CI/CD environment you'll need to fight with ssh-add about the way to ask password, but that's a different story.
I was wondering if there's a way to send files using SFTP to a remote machine through a jump server.
As you can see in the image below first it's needed an SSH connection and after that an SFTP connection.
My main problem here comes after the SSH connection, my workspace has changed and I cannot retrieve the necessary files to execute the SFTP successfully.
I've tried the following code:
ssh jump-server-user#ip-jump-server 'echo "put /source/files /remote/files" | sftp -v remote-machine-user#ip-remote-machine'
But it does not work.
I've tried to execute a simple command like pwd using the SFTP connection and it works so I think the problem here is how the workspace change.
There would probably be an easier solution but I cannot use SSH on the jump server-remote machine connection and I cannot store the local files in the jump server to send them later to the remote machine.
If you have a recent OpenSSH (at least 8.0) locally, you can use the -J (jump) switch:
sftp -J jump-server-user#ip-jump-server remote-machine-user#ip-remote-machine
With older version (but at least 7.3), you can use ProxyJump directive:
sftp -o ProxyJump=jump-server-user#ip-jump-server remote-machine-user#ip-remote-machine
There are other options like ProxyCommand or port forwarding, which you can use on even older versions of OpenSSH. These are covered in Does OpenSSH support multihop login?
I've just updated my TortoiseGit from v1.7.* to v1.8.15.0 and Git from 1.* to v2.5.0.windows.1. Now trying to perform a remote operation like pull I'm getting errors:
git.exe pull -v --progress "origin"
Unable to open connection: Host does not existfatal: Could not read
from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository
exists.
git did not exit cleanly (exit code 1) (1747 ms # 19.08.2015 18:43:33)
I changed the SSH client setting from TortoiseGitPlink to PuTTY. It didn't work as well, but the PuTTY Error provided following information:
Unuble to open connection to github.com-foo
Host does not exist
I work with aliases and my ~/.ssh/config looks like this:
#github.com-foo account
Host github.com-foo
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_foo
#github.com-bar account
Host github.com-bar
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_bar
That worked before the upgrade and is still working in msys.
TortoiseGit seems to ignore the config. How to make TortoiseGit respect the config again?
PuTTY and TortoiseGitPlink do not respect .ssh/config (as described in e.g. Multiple GitHub Accounts & SSH Config or https://gist.github.com/jexchan/2351996). Both tools store, like Windows tools, their configuration in registry.
For using PuTTY in your scenario, please see the TortoiseGit Manual - Tips and tricks for SSH/PuTTY.
PS: .ssh/config is the config file for OpenSSH. If you want to use OpenSSH, set the ssh client to ssh.exe in TortoiseGit network settings (there is no need to use the full path to ssh.exe as it is on the %PATH%):
I'm trying to setup Pycharm such that my local changes are automatically deployed to a remote server.
I can ssh remoteserver and also sftp remoteserver from the terminal so access is not an issue. But if I try to setup deployment in Pycharm using SFTP, it can't establish the connection.
My best guess is that it's an authentication issue. When running the ssh or sftp commands separately, I've never needed to enter a username or password, so I suppose the auth is happening via Private Key. But the problem is that I'm not sure where the Private Key actually is (I'm in an unfamiliar dev environment).
So either
How do I know which Private Key I'm using when running ssh or sftp?
Any other way to resolve the problem.
Thanks!
As to (1), the SSH man page says (under the -i option) "The default is ~/.ssh/identity for protocol version 1, and ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_dsa for protocol version 2. Identity files may also be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file."
The configuration file is ~/.ssh/config, and the key file for a particular host is specified with IdentityFile.
You can also run ssh with -vvv parameter. The location of the private key file will be printed out (if key authentication is used).
This shouldn't be this hard. I cannot connect to new AWS EC2 instance via SSH clients. I am connecting from a Win 7 box.
Instance OS: Debian 6
AMI: debian-squeeze-i386-20121119-e4554303-3a9d-412e-9604-eae67dde7b76-ami-1977f070.1(ami-a121a6c8)
User: tried root and also ec2-user
Using .pem keypair that AWS generated and I downloaded
Confirmed security group and Key Pair Name on instance
SSH port 22 is OPEN: Nmap says so and Telnet gets a welcome reply
Using 3 different clients: all clients connect ok
PuTTY replies: Server refused our key
MindTerm Java browser add-in replies: Authentication failed, permission denied
Bitvise SSH replies: Attempting 'publickey' auth; auth failed;
Rebooted instance, wash, rinse, repeat...
REBUILT new instance and new keypair, wash, rinse, repeat...
Connecting isn't the issue. Why would the instance not accept the .pem file as the password? Is there an additional step I am missing? I followed EVERY frigging guide I could Google. AWS support is a joke. stackoverflow to the rescue...
TIA.
According to the debian wiki which has documentation on the AMI you are using, the username you need to use to login is 'admin'.
I have had many issues with connecting to EC2 via ssh.
ssh -i the-keypair-filename root#yourdomain.com
- Keypair file must be in same directory.
- I just used terminal to connect.
Make sure you generate or assign the keypair when launching the instance.
Also you can verify the keypair you have set in the AWS Management Console, this is done by selecting the running instance and then looking for "Key Pair Name:".
I hope this is helpful.
My problem was that I didn't add a volume that was expected in the fstab file so the server didn't start fully and the sshd daemon wasn't running.
Check with:
telnet HOST 22
Check the server logs to make sure it starts properly before you waste lots of time like I did.
Amazon Linux AMIs that use ec2-user password are listed at the bottom of this page.
http://aws.amazon.com/amazon-linux-ami/
Check that you are using one of those if trying to use ec2-user, or check the documentation for the AMI you are using.

Try using the "admin" username and ignore the username suggested by Amazon.
I had the similar problem and I have solved the issue by following approach.
1) Edited the knife.rb file in my chef folder i.e. :\Users\Administrator\chef-starter\chef-repo.chef\knife.rb as bellow:
knife[:aws_access_key_id] = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
knife[:aws_secret_access_key] = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
knife[:region] = 'ap-southeast-1'
knife[:aws_ssh_key_id] = "ChefUser"
knife[:ssh_user]="ec2-user"
In the command prompt, issued the command to create an ec2-server:
knife ec2 server create -r "role[webserver]" --image ami-abcd1234 --flavor t1.micro -G ChefClient -x root -N server01 -i H:\Chef-files\ChefUser.pem
Note that, even though I had given all the details in the knife.rb file, I had to give the .pem file path in coomand line through -i option. That solved my problem.
Check, if the solution of mine helps you.
Cheers,
Chandan
Logging in as "ubuntu" worked for me:
ssh -i private_key.pem ubuntu#myubuntuserver
Hope this helps
