Description
Hello there,
Is there a way to forward the publicKey to other ssh server ?
Something like that ?
client.on('authentication', (ctx) => {
else if(ctx.method == 'publickey'){
connect({
username : ctx.username,
publicKey : ctx.key.data
}, function(err, session){
if(err) return ctx.reject()
ctx.accept()
})
}
Not an expert, maybe it's crazy x)
Thanks for your help !

Research direction
Start from the client.on('authentication') callback and the connect({ username, publicKey }) example in the issue, then trace the client and server public-key authentication flow. Done means determining whether this proxy behavior is supported and documenting the required behavior or limitations with a reproducible authentication example.
