Jo,

can you paste me some code here please? Basically, if you generate RSA key then you must provide this 'RSA' to PublicKeyXXXX and PrivateKeyXXXX properties. Do you do that?

In order to tell you more, code snippet would help.

Regards,
Kreso

Wow,

this is a fast support :)
i extract few rown of code from sample 4:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Cert.GenerateKey 'RSAkey
Call DisplayPlublic
end sub

Private Sub DisplayPlublic()
On Error Resume Next
Dim a As String

a = Cert.PublicKeyOpenSSH
If Err = 0 Then Text2.Text = a
End Sub

i have understand that, after generation, i can get with function PublicKeyOpenSSH the public key to copy on the server.
The raw versione of public key in returned without error.

thanks again

I'm not sure why your code doesn't work. I tried something similar and it does work for me:
[code] Dim cert As New Certificate

On Error Resume Next
cert.LoadKey App.Path & mykey
If Err <> 0 Then
cert.GenerateKey 0 'rsakey
cert.SaveKey App.Path & mykey
End If

MsgBox cert.PublicKeyOpenSSH[/code]

Can you try it out and change to it suits your needs?

Giovanni,

now I'm thinking more. I think [code]Cert.GenerateKey 'RSAkey
[/code] generates error in your code (so certificate isn't created at all) but you don't trap this error. Possible? GenerateKey requires one argument which you didn't specify.

Thanks,

i still continue to get the same error.

I have try also SFTP library and with that i am able to show the PublicKeyOpenSSH

Pity in the same application i must connect with both ftp and sftp server but SFTP library work only as sftp client of course.

I will try to reinstall the library FtpDLX.....

Giovanni,

did try you my code?

Can you ZIP your VB app and send it over? This *must* work!

Yes a have tryed your sample. The key is generated without error ( i can display PrivateKey) but try to display PublicKeyOpenSSH (and other public keys) give me the error.
Now i send you the sample by email.

thanks

Seems to work with fresh wodCertificate.DLL. I am not sure why it failed for you, and I'm not sure how did that 'bad' wodCertificate.DLL end up in installation.

Anyway, I'm glad problem is fixed!
