I have a OpenSSH generated private key in the following format in the file. How do I load the key into Ssh1.PrivateKey field via C# .NET.

----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,D16600A198B49E0C

Rodney,

wodKeyManager component comes with wodSSH.NET. Use its Load method to load the key, and then it's PrivateKey property to pass value of the key to wodSSH.NET.

Can you try that?

I tried the load and get a trap:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in weonlydo.security.cryptography.keymanager.dll

Additional information: Failed to import key from file.

The code is from the sample app.

WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.KeyManager km = new WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.KeyManager();
WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.SSHKeyTypes type = km.Load(textBox4.Text);
Console.WriteLine(km.PublicKeyOpenSSH(type));
Ssh1.PrivateKey = km.PrivateKey(type);

I can send you the key file if you want.

It worked pretty much straightforward with your key. Here's my code:
[code]WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.KeyManager km = new WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.KeyManager();
WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.SSHKeyTypes type;
type = km.Load( privatekey.dat , ******** );
MessageBox.Show(km.PublicKeyOpenSSH(type), Public key );[/code]

Hope it helps.
