Use deploy with protected ssh-key about cothority HOT 10 CLOSED

On OSX it is sufficient to execute

ssh-add path/to/private/key

and then enter the password for the ssh key to resolve this issue.

is this for the session, one hour or forever?

The passphrase is stored in the OSX keychain, i.e. it depends on how you handle keychain unlocking. See: https://help.github.com/articles/working-with-ssh-key-passphrases/

Btw. the default OSX ssh-add command seems not to have a -K flag as mentioned in the article.

OK, can you add that to the deploy/README in an appropriate place?

And make a pull-request?

There's no deploy/README file yet. Should I add one or should I include that ssh-comment in the main README https://github.com/DeDiS/cothority/blob/master/README.md ?

from cothority.

As we have now two separate apps in the tree (app/conode and deploy), we could split the cothority/README to cothority/app/conode/README (already exists) and cothority/deploy/README and then just give a short overview in the cothority/README over the two apps.

Okay, I'll take care of that later today.
