Agent forwarding

[jailbird777]

Are there any plans to add support for authentication agent forwarding?

I have a herd of SBCs (perfect for TinySSH) that I sometimes have to access via bastion. Currently the only way to access them would be to put the private key on the bastion, which is less than ideal.

have you looked at my pull request?

#29

could this be useful for you?

Your PR is useful for another project of mine (SSH enabling an old telnet FOSSIL BBS), but sadly doesn't replace the need for agent forwarding.

ah yes, apparently I had no idea what agent forwarding was 😁
but now when I look at it it seems as a very convenient feature to have. If only I knew how it's typically implemented I could say how likely it is to have tinyssh support it, but I don't. So, let's hope @janmojzis answers you soon.

Hello,
"agent forwarding" is not implented in TinySSH.
And I'm not planing to add this feature.
