openssh key type: ssh-rsa is not supported

[AndrewRRoe]

Having trouble using priv/pub key to connect using Posh-ssh. I was under the impression RSA keys were supported - I am using rsa ssh2 4096 bit key. Any help would be appreciated.

POSH-SSH Version - Manifest 3.0.0 beta1 Posh-SSH

new-session command throws this error:

"new-sshsession : openssh key type: ssh-rsa is not supported"

command resembles - new-sshsession -computername mysystem -Credential $cred -KeyFile C:\users\jondoe\Documents\SSH_KEY_PRIV.pem

$cred = get-credential ( values supplied are usrename and private key pass phrase)

For RSA it is only the old format, the newer format is still held up as a PR for the library sshnet/SSH.NET#614 <sshnet/SSH.NET#614>

Thank you I didn't realize that ....

@darkoperator Sorry, if I understand it correctly sshnet/SSH.NET#883 was supposed to have solved this issue? And if I understand your comment there 3.0 release is including it and should have this issue addressed?
I'm just confused cause I'm still seeing this with posh-ssh 3.0.0

Still not supported it was mentioned that it was holding release which it was not. So it could be me miss understanding the message

Looked up how to create "the old format" (PEM) on a linux machine:
$ ssh-keygen -m PEM -t rsa -b 4096

I know the library supports OpenSSH format, but I do not believe PEM cert v01 is supported.
