Hello,
I am developing what we may call a "distributed video player" in Ruby (this is
NOT a Rails application). It works this way: I have several boxes that play
videos and one server, where I store the contents I will later send to the
playing boxes (videos are played from local files, not streamed).
When I want to play a video, I want to play it at once in every box, so I must
send it to every playing box, wait for the files to transfer to every box,
then send a "play" command to every box.
I'm thinking of using SwitchTower to automate that step. The problem is the
password to transfer the files. I've read
http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/chapter/97 and it looks like I need to
have the same password for all servers. I don't like this approach very much,
I think it's not very secure.
So the question is: is it possible to use public key authentication in
SwitchTower?
