I'm trying to log into my server from my workstation over the Internet using BBEdit's sftp. Is sftp done in a ssl tunnel? What are the requirements on the remote server to enable me to log in, encrypted, as root to manage configuration files and such?
I normally ssh to the server in Terminal (passwordless via RSA keys) and then su to root, if needed. I'd like to be able to use BBEdit instead of Terminal and pico.
So I've set the server to allow passwordless log-in by root using a key.
How do I get BBEdit to use sftp as the root user with no password?
Or is "sftp" the wrong mechanism? Can I tunnel BBEdit's connection in ssh or some such?
Bottom line: I want BBEdit to connect and edit files on my server as root, using my public key instead of a password. Can I do that?
