Error connecting with private key authentication (General questions)

Hello All,

I am trying to use the wod .net ssh component, and i am getting following error

unable to connect ATTR_SSH_SECURE_REMOTE_LOGON

I am using the public key sample app that comes with the component.

Also, I can confirm that the server works using the same key when i use the humming bird or sftp client.

has anyone seen this error before ?

Hi Asharma,

I'm not sure that we experience such error in past. Which line in your code produce such problem?

Can you please try this code to connect to server with private key:

hello ,
thanks for the quick response, the code changes did not change the outcome, to i started down the path of using ftpdlx component

here is my code, and i am now getting an error saying 'Failed to import private key', the same key works with other clients, can you see if i am doing something wrong ?

Ssh1.Hostname = TextBox2.Text;
Ssh1.Protocol = Protocols.SFTP;
Ssh1.Port = 22;
Ssh1.Login = TextBox3.Text;
Ssh1.Authentication = Authentications.PublicKey;
WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.KeyManager km = new WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.KeyManager();
WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.SSHKeyTypes type = km.Load(textBox4.Text);
Ssh1.PrivateKey = km.PrivateKey(type);
PrintText( Connecting....
);
Ssh1.Connect();

Hi,

Which line produce such error? Maybe your private key has password. In that case you should add it also in Load Method line.

Just like in my sample:
[code]dlx1 = new WeOnlyDo.Client.FtpDLX();
key = new WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.KeyManager();

key.Load( c:\private.txt , password );

dlx1.Hostname = your.hostname ;
dlx1.Authentication = WeOnlyDo.Client.Authentications.PublicKey;
dlx1.Protocol = WeOnlyDo.Client.Protocols.SFTP;
dlx1.Login = your.login ;
dlx1.PrivateKey = key.ToXmlString(WeOnlyDo.Security.Cryptography.SSHKeyTypes.RSAKey, true); //(if you are using DSA key, change RSAkey to DSAkey.)
dlx1.Blocking = true;
dlx1.Connect();[/code]

If problem persist, is there any chance you can send us your private key so we can test it on our side? You can send it ti techsupport@weonlydo.com
