requinix Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 If you only have the private key then use -K instead of -k. And you'll need --fingerprint to see the fingerprint. As for GUIs, I can't help you there. Most of my Linux knowledge is on the server administration side, which means 99% console work.
