SSHKeychain
For a long time I’ve found SSHKeychain an invaluable little app on my Macs, making remote logins with keys relatively painless.
When I upgraded to an Intel-based MacBook last month, I was saddened to find that there wasn’t a Universal release; the last PPC release didn’t run on Intel; and development seems to have stopped altogether.
The good news is that it’s open source, and further one of the last code checkins, early in 2006, had been to add Universal binary build support. So I went ahead and built the thing for my own use.
I did though find that it crashed intermittently when waking from sleep. After a little debugging I found the problem; some variables were initialized badly so if all your keychains were locked it would crash. Fun! Easy to fix, though.
I mailed the patch to the dormant developers mailing list and the author, hopefully it’ll get rolled in and other people will get to use it…
