nysus has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm stumped trying to figure out how to use Rex to log into a remote server. The server provides me with a .pem file. I have successfully used this file to log in manually using ssh -i PEM_FILE_NAME blah@111.222.222.123.

I tried converting it to public key with ssh-keygen -y -f PEM_FILE_NAME > public.key and have the following in my RexFile:

Rex::connect( server => '111.222.222.123', user => 'my_user_name', public_key => '/home/my_user_name/public.key', );

But this isn't working. Not sure what else to try. Thanks.
