forwarding of authentication agent connection

0 comments
Hey Guys... longtime iSSH user, first-time poster...

(I've read about your travails getting tab and stuff to work with
bluetooth on the iPad. Hope it works out as with the 3G this is a
quite small, handy and usable jump-on-and-fix-something rig.)

The openssh version of ssh has a switch, -A, which enables forwarding
of the authentication agent connection. When I use it, I can jump off
the host I've ssh'ed into to another host for which my key is
authorized.

I request that you consider adding support for this capability to
iSSH. It would need to be per-connection configuration option, in my
opinion. (As you will see from the ssh manpage, there are security
implications from using it.)

Regards,
Karl
