Question on using ssh and ssh keys in Vista

Yes I admit it, and in fact will probablly write a post about it… Anyways that is not the point of this entry.

I do a lot of Kubuntu/Ubuntu “work” and would like to continue using Launchpad in the way that I use it in my Kubuntu box.  The #1 thing I am missing is ssh keys and how it will work w/ bzr to commit to launchpad.

I have multiple branches that I work on…. Documentation, and 5-a-day, stuff like that.  Bzr works in Windows, I have no problem checking out branches.  it is commiting to those branches that causes problems. 

If someone can help me out or point me in a direction to help out that would be wonderful.  I would prefer to not use cygwin but that may be the only answer?

Thanks,

Jonathan

  1. PuTTY? I always use it for my SSH needs on Windows. As for keys, I don’t know.

  2. Daniel,

    I already use putty to ssh into my home box, but was wondering if there was a way to do it from the actual vista machine?
