Confirm Remote Private Key Operations

You can configure whether to have the Key Agent confirm whenever a connection is made using a key in the agent.

To configure remote private key operations

  • From the Key Agent Options menu, select or clear Confirm Remote Private Key Operations.

    The Key Agent displays a confirmation dialog box whenever a connection is made using a key in the agent; when cleared, a key exchange occurs in the background, and connections are made with no prompting.
