Properties   Methods   Events   Configuration Settings   Errors  

The SSHAuth component provides a simple way to authenticate a user against a SSH server.

Syntax

SSHAuth

Remarks

The SSHAuth control offers a simply way to authenticate a user against a SSH server.

To begin specify the SSHHost, User, and Password. Next call Authenticate to authenticate the user.

The control supports multiple authentication methods including public key authentication, keyboard interactive authentication, password authentication, and more. Set AuthMode to the desired authentication mechanism before calling Authenticate.

Property List


The following is the full list of the properties of the control with short descriptions. Click on the links for further details.

AuthModeThe authentication method to be used the component when calling Authenticate .
FirewallAutoDetectThis property tells the component whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.
FirewallTypeThis property determines the type of firewall to connect through.
FirewallHostThis property contains the name or IP address of firewall (optional).
FirewallPasswordThis property contains a password if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.
FirewallPortThis property contains the TCP port for the firewall Host .
FirewallUserThis property contains a user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.
LocalHostThe name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.
LocalPortThe TCP port in the local host where IPPort binds.
PasswordThe password for SSH password-based authentication.

SSHCertEncodedThe certificate (PEM/base64 encoded).
SSHCertStoreThe name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
SSHCertStorePasswordIf the certificate store is of a type that requires a password, this property is used to specify that password in order to open the certificate store.
SSHCertStoreTypeThe type of certificate store for this certificate.
SSHCertSubjectThe subject of the certificate used for client authentication.
SSHEncryptionAlgorithmsA comma-separated list containing all allowable compression algorithms.
SSHHostThe address of the SSH host.
