Variables

var ErrEncryptedPrivateKey = errors.New("encrypted private key (passphrase-protected); sshush only supports unencrypted keys")

ErrEncryptedPrivateKey is returned when the file is a passphrase-protected private key.

var ErrNotOpenSSHKey = errors.New("openssh: not an unencrypted OpenSSH private key")

ErrNotOpenSSHKey is returned by ParsePrivateKeyBlob when the data is not an unencrypted OpenSSH private key. Encrypted OpenSSH keys return ErrEncryptedPrivateKey instead.

Types
