Does anyone have any ideas what the syntax in bash is? I've been playing with this for hours. My manager says that zsh treats the cat'd key as a file, while if you try it with bash, replacing the = with <, it asks for the passphrase of what must be a socket.
In bash <(command ...) should give you /dev/fd/## - connected to the output of the command. Which seems like it should work for that.
Should, but doesn't. Instead, every time when I do scp -i <(ssh -q <server1> cat /etc/ks/ks_dsa) /root/.ssh/id_dsa.pub <server2:/root/.ssh/authorized_key
it asks for the passphrase for key '/dev/fd/<meaninglessnumber>
