how to import of existing keys?

0 comments
Hi,

can someone who successfully imported ssh keys please post a small
howto? I got stuck on several ways to import the key.

Here's what I did so far:
I tried to import my RSA key (created with openssh), but got an error
message "Unable to process cilpboard contents". I investigated a
little and found the key generated with iSSH doesn't have the
following 2 lines, which my key has:
---- snip ---------
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,<some hex stuff removed>
---- snip ---------

After removing those lines and import via clipboard again I get "Wrong
password" immediately after hitting "Import Private Key" without even
being asked for a password.

I also generated a key with iSSH and tried to import with and without
deleting it prior to import - also no success.

Thanks in advance for any hint,

Katja
