Example of logging in w/ a public key (General questions)

Hi

I am trying to log into a server w/ a 2048 DSA key generated by putty. Not having a lot of luck.

I have been given an account but told that the account password is disabled.

First, the key has a passphrase. I am not sure where to put this using wodSSH.

Second, wodSSH doesnt seem to like the ppk private key file that putty generates. I did some playing around w/ puttygen and found the export. does wodSSH want to use the .PEM format? it loads this file but I am not getting connected.

I am using the public key example that came in the download. The only changes I made are that I hardcoded the path to the server and my public key in the text boxes so I could cycle tests quickly and not worry about finger farts.

When I try to connect, it says

I have sent the SSH server's admin some sample keys, one w/ a pass phrase and one without. He says he can connect fine w/ both.


I am new to SSH. If there is a manual somewhere that I should read just let me know.

...with a minimum of effort as the DLL interface was written with such simplicity...

May I say how nice it is to work with components so complete and self-explanatory that using them in my application is as instinctive as though I wrote them myself?
