Feature request - ssh password support

[wykas]

Would it be possible to add ssh login with password support?

Will implement it in next release but I am pretty tied up on moving appartment at the momemt.

Hi, I would also like to see this. Since I do not understand how to create ssh keys and all that .... I tried with my qnap but failed .... with an ssh password would be more easy.

Thanks!

First off, you really shouldn't have copied/pasted the key, although at least it's encrypted with a passphrase thankfully. In order to use the key you generated, you'll need to decrypt it to a file so you can get the decrypted version of the private key.

Don't really know what OS, etc you're using but usually you would use OpenSSL to do this.
"openssl rsa -in [encryptedfile] -out [whatevernameyouwant]"
