OpenChannel Method

Opens a new SSHChannel .

Syntax

sshdaemon.openChannel(connectionId, channelType, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

The SSH 2.0 specification allows for multiple channels to be opened over a single TCP/IP connection. The Channels property represents the channels that are currently open. A new SSHChannel can be opened with OpenChannel.

ChannelType represents the type of SSH channel to be opened. The most common type of channel is "session".

If the call to OpenChannel succeeds, an SSHChannel will be created and added to the Channels collection.
