I don't think I understand what exactly you are suggesting. Could you provide an example? I can currently do the following with 'arm', and want to it with 'nyx' as well: me@mynotebook $ ssh foo@tornode foo@tornode $ sudo -u tor /usr/bin/arm I have to enter SSH keyfile password(*) and SUDO password already, and don't want to enter yet another password for the Tor controller. Since I am the only human who can SSH to my Tor nodes, having a password in ~/.nyx/config would be a "risk" (grin) I'm perfectly willing to take. -Ralph (*) I'm aware of ssh-agent. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
