Dear Group: Thanks to previous hints about SSH private key formats, I was able to isolate the code that fails when trying to parse PKCS encoded RSA keys. (i.e. Private keys with a passphrase.)
The failure occurs in libssh2_base64_parse() when it is called by _libssh2_pem_parse(). Previous E-Mail indicates the problem is PKCS encoded private RSA keys, which the current code cannot handle. (i.e. I am using version 1.2.6) My application needs to be able to handle at least RSA 1 private keys, and preferably RSA 2 private keys. Can the Libssh2 code handle unencrypted RSA 1 or 2 keys ? If not, how can I circumvent the problem enough for interoperability with standard Linux servers ? Also, when will the problem be fixed ? Note that using Openssl is not an option !
