SSH - 'Agent Refused Operation' when use external monitor and close macbook's screen
Hi, I recently encountered a problem with SSH - 'Agent Refused Operation' when I trying to use SSH agent to login my server.
Through other discussion I found this log file and found the following ...
I realized this error started when I turned on the "Use your Apple Watch to unlock apps and your Mac" under the system's preferences >> Security & Privacy. You can work around it temporarily by disabling that feature although I'm a bit confused why this happens since the SSH agent page says that the best experience is using Apple Watch to unlock.
