Hi,
when administrating a remote server, I login via SSH with key
authentication. Is there a good way to use my local password store
there, e.g. for getting a database password?
I could do (from my local machine):
ssh remoteserver mysql -u root -P$(pass remoteserver/mysql/root | head -n 1)
But is there a way to do something like this from the server's bash?
e.g.:
local$ ssh remoteserver
remoteserver$ mysql -u root -P$(pass remoteserver/mysql/root | head -n 1)
Maybe this could be done with something like SSH key forwarding? And
probably the password-store needs to exist on the server, too.
Kind regards
Dominic
