  end
end

#sign(string) ⇒ Object

Signs a string with all available ssh keys

  • string - the value to sign

Returns an array of SSH::Key::Signature objects

‘identity’ on each object is an openssl key instance of one of these typs:

  • OpenSSL::PKey::RSA

  • OpenSSL::PKey::DSA

  • OpenSSL::PKey::DH

Net::SSH monkeypatches the above classes to add additional methods, so just be aware.
