[Bug 1380084] Re: SSH client requires SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 will not work without it, can't use key auth without SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0

 

Happens with all SSH commands such as scp and sftp.  This also means
that I can't use the file explorer called files to connect to remote
file systems.  sftp will not work in the files browser because there is
no way to tell files to use SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0

So I can not browse remote files in the file explorer as if they were
local.  I'm talking about the GUI file explorer.

Title:
  SSH client requires SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 will not work without it, can't
  use key auth without SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0

Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I expect that when using key based authentication I do $ssh user@0.0.0.0 I expect to be asked for the key password.  Instead I get Agent admitted failure to sign using the key.
  Permission denied (publickey).

  Using SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 solves the problem allowing me to be asked for
  the key password.

  What should happen is that I should not have to specify
  SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 on the CLI, I should only have to type $ user@0.0.0.0
