Web Shell vs Webmin command shell
I'm installing TK PostgreSQL v. 18.0. I have a set of instructions that I've used to install earlier versions with no issues. There is a point at which I run "ssh_keygen -t rsa" to generate files "id_rsa" and id_rsa.pub". I usually run the command from Web Shell but since that's no longer available I ran the command from Webmin command shell. It starts to run and stops at "Enter file in which to save the key (/root.ssh/id_rsa):". Then it returns to the command prompt without continuing or generating the keys.
Is Webmin command shell incapable of performing the same as Web Shell?
Additionally, I used PuTTy to ssh into the server and run the command to generate the keys after which Webmin command shell now responds to the ssh-keygen command. With:
root@postgresql ~]# ssh-keygen -f rsa Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Generating public/private rsa key pair. Your identification has been saved in rsa Your public key has been saved in rsa.pub The key fingerprint is: SHA256:3zz7KF5Cw4b7I78wK0d4/Cw0KiqJt8wyBL40 root@postgresql The key's randomart image is: +---[RSA 3072]----+ | . | | . . | | + . | | . . . Bo | |.... . +SB= | |o+.. o *=++ | |E.+ | |..+o . o=+o + | | . oo o.+=+o.. | +----[SHA256]-----+
What's going on here?
