RSA WTF?

December 1st, 2005

Hmm. My SSH2 RSA keys suddenly stopped working yesterday.

debug1: Offering public key: /Users/dsandler/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 149
debug1: PEM_read_PrivateKey failed
debug1: read PEM private key done: type <unknown>

They worked before; I haven’t changed anything about my ssh-agent setup in that time. (Yes, I rebooted for the recent Apple security patch, but the brokenness appeared before the reboot.)
