ssh:file-keypair


Provide a Key Pair from Open SSH format files.

This is the file format created with the 'ssh-keytool' and defaults to 'id_rsa'. I think this form is also known as PEM, it's of the form

 -----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----
 Base 64 stuff
 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
 
And not to be confused, as I did, with SSH2 format files hat begin ---- BEGIN SSH2 (note the space) and can have headers in before the Base 64 stuff. Oddjob doesn't currently support these.
