Authentication property
Determines type of authentication used with the server.
Type
Authentications enumeration value. Constant value that represent one possible type of authentication supported by wodSSH.NET.
Syntax
Authentications Authentication {get; set; };
Property Authentication As Authentications
Remarks
Authentication property allows you to select type of authentication you want to use with the server. Most commonly, you will choose
Authentications.Password authentication, which requires
Login and
Password properties to be set before
Connect method is called. Once wodSSH.NET connects to the server, it will authenticate you ONLY with username and password.
If you prefer to authenticate yourself using your
Private Key (server MUST have your public key in that case), you should set this property to
Authentications.PublicKey, and you should set
Login and
PrivateKey properties accordingly.
If you allow any of these authentications to take place, set this property to
Authentications.Both value. In this case wodSSH.NET will try to use both methods. Different server implementations may require either one or both of the authentications are successful to login to the server. Please note that in this case you must set all three properties:
Login,
Password and
PrivateKey.
To set your private key, use KeysManager object (included in the setup package) that will allow you to generate, load and save your personal keys.
