[mosh-users] ssh -i keyfile

[Keith Winstein]

The extra space in your error message makes me a little suspicious.

Does your line look something like the following?

exec 'ssh', '-i', 'keyfile.pem', '-S', 'none', '-o',
"ProxyCommand=$quoted_self --fake-proxy -- %h %p", '-t', $userhost,
'--', "$server " . shell_quote( @server );

Best,
Keith
