wodFtpDLX.net and Private key - WeOnlyDo Discussion board

Hierarchical

Hi,
I am using wodFtpDlx.net and connecting to a server using SFTP on port 22.
My customer now wants to use certificates and they supplied me with a file with a private key and not use passwords.

File looks like this:

-----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTED
DEK-Info: DES...,101AB...

vlgw...
...
...PHoSDVQ67T/HR
-----END DSA PRIVATE KEY-----

I cut out most of data in above example.

What is the easy and proper way to set the privatekey field.
I tried to read the data into a string, but get an error of failed to import key when trying to connect.

I am not that knowledgable on keys and encryption so any and all help would be apprecieated.

Thanks,
Tim

Hi Tim,

You should insert your private key to wodFtpDLX.NET PrivateKey Property in XML string value. To done that you can download wodSFTP.NET or wodSSH.NET and use wodKeyManager component.

wodKeyManager component is part of wodSFTP.NET or wodSSH.NET componenet.

In wodKeyManager you should load your key and convert it to XML string value using wodKeyManager ToXmlString Method. You should paste that value in wodFtpDLX.NET PrivateKey Property.

Let us know how it goes.

Hi Drazen,
I tried using the keymanager from wodSSH.net and I get the same error when I invoke the Load method.
'Failed to import key from file.'

What do you think?

Thanks,

Can you maybe send us some sample key so we can test it on our side?

WeOnlyDo!COM will be the first stop I make should I require any further off-the-shelf components.

Thank you very much for the rapid responses. I was a little nervous about dealing with a company that is on a different continent from me. You have proven my concerns to be unfounded.

We have recently completed a large 1200+ location project where reliable Telnet and SSH connectivity was required. wodSSH worked flawlessly and allowed our staff to complete our project ontime and within budget.
