Connect to EC2 via Midnight Commander with key pair
I can connect or copy files to EC2 machine via:
ssh -i my.pem [email protected]
and
scp -i my.pem file.txt [email protected]:/home/ec2-user
but I want to manage remote files via Midnight Commander. There are "shell links" but how can I use it with key pair connection?

Put the following into ~/.ssh/config
:
Host ec2.xxx.compute.amazonaws.com
User ec2-user
IdentityFile /path/to/the/my.pem
then try again.
Other way. Enter in console:
ssh-add /path/to/your/key/file_name.pem
After that you can enter your_name@your_address.amazonaws.com in mc shell-connect menu and press Ok
