I generated ssh key on my Mac - using "ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096" command which stored the keys on my id_rsa.pub file. I have tried everything possible, did a lot of scouring on the web, but to no avail:( Here are the steps which i followed - Please can someone assist. Now, I wanted the same behaviour with my Mac, to be able to SSH to the Ubuntu VM. After this i was successfully able to ssh from Windows to Linux (Ubuntu). I used PuttyGen on Windows VM and generated an ssh key, copied to clipboard, opened up authorized_keys file on my ubuntu vm and pasted it as-s. Both exposed to each other on host-only network. I have 2 VM's on it, one is a windows 10 VM and another one is Ubuntu. I have a Mac and on it, I have virtualbox installed. So I check it, so that I can switch between windows of Linux vm via Alt + Tab, and when I need to go back to Windows host, I click Host key first or use mouse.I was looking for some assistance with SSH. When I am using Linux vm on a Windows host.Īctually most of the time I am working on the linux vm, and sometimes need to go to the Windows host.So I uncheck it, so that never need to click Host key to get back to Linux host. In the Windows vm browser with proxy is the only thing I need most of the time, and most of the time I am on Linux host. When I am using Windows vm on a Linux host.There is a trade off, it depends on what you use the vm for to decide whether check it or not. But, you also can't switch within windows inside the vm, via Alt + Tab any more. You can use Alt + Tab to switch to a window from host anytime, without press the Host key first. If unchecked, then vm is just treated as a simple window in host.
The virtualbox Auto Capture Keyboard option If you switch back to the vm again via Alt + Tab, then vm will get focus again, then to get back to residing os, you need to press Host key again.If the vm already lose focus, then you don't need to press the Host key first, otherwise you need to press once & release, to transfer focus back to residing os.The Host key is used to transfer focus to residing os, on windows or linux it's right Ctrl by default.Click Host key once and release to let the vm lose focus, then Alt + Tab, switch to a window of residing os,.Host key + m, minimize virtualbox os window,.
