Is it possible to connect via ssh (AccuTerm Mobile) using a private ssh-key?

Hi Mark -
Sorry - public key authentication is not yet supported in AccuTerm Mobile. We have had some discussion about how to add support -- mainly how to design a UI for key management -- but no consensus yet. If you have suggestions on how the interface might be laid out feel free to post here. There are two (obvious) ways to handle key management, and both are supported on the desktop version of AccuTerm. First, you can create the key pair on the server and somehow (securely) get a copy of the private key onto the client. Second, you can create the key pair on the client, and somehow (security is not an issue) get a copy of the public key onto your server. Neither is particularly user friendly. And given the lack of CPU horsepower on the client, I would favor creating the keys on the server. Comments on this are appreciated. Thanks, Pete |

Hello Pete,
Just as a follow up to the OP, has there ever been an update to having the ability to load a SSH Key? I've seen some other clients handle the load by having the key stored in say, OneDrive or iCloud Drive and you would simply point Accuterm Mobile to the link where the file is at. I am very interested in seeing this feature as an update. Thank you again!
