Hi Support,

i'm running Remoter for Mac from Appstore (1.2.0) and everytime i click on import key i get the message
'Unable to find key file ssh.key'. (in german of cause)

With the beta version from this board i don't experience this problem! But actually i'm not able to use my private key!

Could you give me feedback?

Kind regards,
Axel Jung

[Moderator Update: Updated version number 2.0 -> 1.2.0]

Hi Axel,

This is an unfortunate side effect of the sandboxing that Apple imposes on Apps.

As a work around, please copy the ssh key (id_rsa) file into the sandboxing environment, which can be found under:
/Users/yourUser/Library/Containers/com.remoterlabs.remotermac/Data/.ssh/
(you might need to create the .ssh directory)


OR Simply run this command from the terminal:
Code: Select all
rsync -avz ~/.ssh ~/Library/Containers/com.remoterlabs.remotermac/Data/


Hope this helps!,
Raf.

Dear Raf,

thank you very much.
Your workaround is (of cause ;-) ) working.

Would it be possible to switch from the appstore version to a version licensed from you?

Kind regards,
Axel Jung
