Thanks for these explanations. Actually, I precisely tried to follow these
instructions above. Unfortunately, a public/private key pair wouldn't work
with the remote connection, unless it underwent the following special
treatment.
- Remove pass-phrase
- Import to General->Network Connections->SSH2
- Reset the pass-phrase to the original value inside eclipse
- Save private key (I guess that means an export from eclipse)
Removing and re-adding the pass-phrase and importing/exporting in/from eclipse
should be reverse operations. So common sense would expect that the key pair
comes out unchanged out of this special treatment. Experience shows that this
is not true. Something changes that makes the key usable for synchronized
projects. If not treated like above, the remote connection never would come
active as it keeps asking for the pass-phrase for ever and ever. Apparently,
it is not able to unlock the key.
Any idea what happens there ?
