[opensuse] ssh plug-in for konsole?
I installed a ssh client plugin for konsole several months ago. After upgrading to 11.1 I don't have it available anymore and I don't remember what it was called, etc. Anyone know?

What did it do? You should be able to simply use the command-line ssh client from any normal (that is: running a shell) konsole. You should also be able to simply set a session's "Execute" to ssh instead of a shell to invoke it directly, if you don't want a local shell at all. Perhaps if you could expound on what it did, we can help you find it or replace it. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/

Try this. In Konsole ... Setting -> Manage Profiles -> New Profile Name: "SSH To Server" Command: "ssh server" [x] Show menu bar in new windows and "save". You now can do Alt-File and see it as an option. If you have that tab open when you logout it will be there when you log ii again. If you get over the 'keychain'/SSH-agent issues I'm discussion in another thread you can have that SSH login appear automatically. -- When one find's oneself in a hole of one's own making, it is a good time to examine the quality of the workmanship. --John Renmerde -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Anton, thanks -- this is very workable. Boyd, It sort of did the above, but it created only one "ssh" entry under file, not one per server. Once selected it opened up a little dialog window where I could control the login id, server name etc. And then once it opened the tab at the bottom showed a yellow locked padlock symbol. (I know I can do that with a profile too.) I ssh into at a dozen or so machines, so having all of them in the file pulldown as I believe the above would do is slightly cumbersome. (Not unworkable, but the plug-in was a little nicer I think.)

I think you need this: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/kssh?content=9965 I'm not sure what openSUSE package it might be in though. There is also kde4-kdessh, but it might be stand-alone only and not the konsole plugin you'd like. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/

I tried both. kssh seems to be what I was using. I had forgotten it was in a different repository. URL: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE%3a/Community/openSUSE_11.1/ Trouble is it is not working. I setup a konsole profile to launch it and the dialog box appears as expected. When I click "connect" the konsole tab for the connection just goes away. I'm running KDE4. kssh -v shows:
kssh -v Qt: 3.3.8b KDE: 3.5.10 "release 21.11" KDE Secure Shell : 0.7
Is this one of those little features that have not yet made it to KDE4?

:( Sorry.

Ah, kssh seems to be KDE3 specific. You might try running konsole from KDE3 if mostly what you use it for is this app/plugin. That's in kdebase3.

Well, it is one of the programs that hasn't been ported to KDE4. However, its not really a feature of KDE so it's no more missing than the Amarok feature is. I wonder where the source code is. There seems to be a sourceforge project, but the CVS server there hasn't been updated in 6 years. I wonder if maybe it got into extragear or playground in the KDE repository. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/

I can live without it, but it looks like there is a source rpm available at source forge as well. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=51342&package_id=45214&release_id=95065 But yes it does look like it has been 6 years since the last code change. But it looks like a couple hundred people a month still download it, plus those that get it with their distro. http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/detail.php?group_id=51342&ugn=kssh&type=prdownload&mode=12months&package_id=0 If you want to look into it, the author is listed as: Andrea Rizzi (rizzi-at-nospam-kde.org) No idea if he is still associated with the kde project or not.

I joined the list after that thread started, so I don't know what the issues are. The only messages I have on that thread are discussing some thread hijacking elsewhere. Anyway, here's what I use my keychains loaded properly... (Helper scripts) ~/bin/keychain-start.sh: (Meant to be sourced) #! /bin/sh # Starts keychain or initializes the environment, but requires no interactivity. if [ -x /usr/bin/keychain ]; then eval "$(/usr/bin/keychain --eval --quiet --inherit any-once --stop others --noask --lockwait 0 >/dev/null 2>&1)" fi ~/bin/keychain-load.bash: (Meant to be run normally) #! /bin/bash # Starts and loads the keychain, interacting with the user as needed. # May start gnupg-agent, but doesn't prompt for keys because gnupg-agent # regularly times out keys. # Since interaction is clearly available, we clear the keychain before adding # keys (assume user is an attacker). if [ -x /usr/bin/keychain ]; then SSH_KEYS=('id_dsa') eval "$(/usr/bin/keychain --eval --inherit any-once --stop others \ --clear "${SSH_KEYS[@]}")" fi (KDE) ~/.kde/env/keychain-start.sh is a hardlink to ~/bin/keychain-start.sh. ~/.kde/env/ssh-askpass.sh: (optional) #! /bin/sh if [ -x /usr/bin/ksshaskpass ]; then SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ksshaskpass; export SSH_ASKPASS elif [ -x /usr/bin/x11-ssh-askpass ]; then SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/x11-ssh-askpass; export SSH_ASKPASS elif [ -x /usr/lib64/ssh/x11-ssh-askpass ]; then SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/lib64/ssh/x11-ssh-askpass; export SSH_ASKPASS elif [ -x /usr/bin/ssh-askpass ]; then SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ssh-askpass; export SSH_ASKPASS elif [ -x /usr/lib64/ssh/ssh-askpass ]; then SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/lib64/ssh/ssh-askpass; export SSH_ASKPASS fi ~/.kde/Autostart/keychain-load.desktop: [Desktop Entry] Name=Load Keychain Comment=Start agents and add keys to them. Exec=/home/bss/bin/keychain-load.bash Terminal=true StartupNotify=false Type=Application Encoding=UTF-8 (bash) ~/.bashrc: [...] if [ -x ~/bin/keychain-start.sh ]; then . ~/bin/keychain-start.sh fi [...] ~/.bash_profile: [...] [[ -t 0 ]] && [[ -x ~/bin/keychain-load.bash ]] && ~/bin/keychain-load.bash [...] This style does leave the agents running after you log out, so it could be a bit dangerous. The load script attempts to mitigate this by clearing the keychains on interactive login, but that's not much. It does have the advantage of giving access to your ssh keychain to your own cron/at jobs, but it would probably be safer to unload the keychains in .bash_logout and .kde/shutdown, for example. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
