    Hi all,

    Is it possible to use a keyfile within RemoteShell? I can run "ssh -i path/to/keyfile server" and it works but the RemoteShell with its sshcon would be better. Thx!

    There are two ways to do this, actually. First is to move your key into SYS:Applications/RemoteShell/Files/Conf. The other is to install the SDK, setup your HOME: dir and put these files into HOME:.ssh like you would do on linux and uncheck the "Use builtin OpenSSH" box in RS.

    You can also just add the -i param into the Login field in the SSHCON gui - since that's added to the ssh launch command line, it'll work just fine.

    I tried the first option but what should be the filename for the conf dir?

    That'd be like regular .ssh dir contents, so id_rsa & id_rsa.pub
