SShell Module
Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors
The SShell module is used to open a shell connection to an SSH server.
Syntax
IPWorksSSH.Sshell
Remarks
The SShell class establishes a Secure Shell connection to a server and starts up the user's default shell. Using the class is very simple. The destination is specified by the SSHHost property, and the login information is given by the SSHUser and SSHPassword properties. Then call the SSHLogon method to establish a permanent, secure connection to the SSH server. For each command you wish to execute, simply call the Execute command or set the Command property with the command you wish to execute as the parameter. Further input can be supplied to the Text parameter of the Send method or via the Stdin property.
The output of the command is returned through the Stdout event. If an error happens on the protocol level, the error message can be found in the ErrorMessage property. Errors during command execution (the stderr stream) are given by the Stderr event.

Syntax
public var command: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=command,setter=setCommand:) NSString* command; - (NSString*)command; - (void)setCommand :(NSString*)newCommand;
Default Value
""
Remarks
Assigning a command to this property makes the class attempt to connect to the SSHHost and execute the command under the user's shell. There is no need to append an end-of-line character to the command. All output from the remote application will be returned through the Stdout event.
Connected Property (SShell Module)
This shows whether the module is connected.
Syntax
public var connected: Bool { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=connected,setter=setConnected:) BOOL connected; - (BOOL)connected; - (void)setConnected :(BOOL)newConnected;
Default Value
False
Remarks
This property is used to determine whether or not the class is connected to the remote host.
Note: It is recommended to use the Connect or Disconnect method instead of setting this property.
ErrorMessage Property (SShell Module)
This property includes the error message that is returned when any of the steps before command execution fail.
Syntax
public var errorMessage: String { get {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readonly,assign,getter=errorMessage) NSString* errorMessage; - (NSString*)errorMessage;
Default Value
""
Remarks
This error message is returned on a separate connection associated with error messages.
This property is read-only.
Firewall Property (SShell Module)
A set of properties related to firewall access.
Syntax
public var firewall: Firewall { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=firewallAutoDetect,setter=setFirewallAutoDetect:) BOOL firewallAutoDetect; - (BOOL)firewallAutoDetect; - (void)setFirewallAutoDetect :(BOOL)newFirewallAutoDetect; @property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=firewallType,setter=setFirewallType:) int firewallType; - (int)firewallType; - (void)setFirewallType :(int)newFirewallType; @property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=firewallHost,setter=setFirewallHost:) NSString* firewallHost; - (NSString*)firewallHost; - (void)setFirewallHost :(NSString*)newFirewallHost; @property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=firewallPassword,setter=setFirewallPassword:) NSString* firewallPassword; - (NSString*)firewallPassword; - (void)setFirewallPassword :(NSString*)newFirewallPassword; @property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=firewallPort,setter=setFirewallPort:) int firewallPort; - (int)firewallPort; - (void)setFirewallPort :(int)newFirewallPort; @property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=firewallUser,setter=setFirewallUser:) NSString* firewallUser; - (NSString*)firewallUser; - (void)setFirewallUser :(NSString*)newFirewallUser;
Default Value
0
Remarks
This is a Firewall-type property, which contains fields describing the firewall through which the class will attempt to connect.
LocalHost Property (SShell Module)
The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.
Syntax
public var localHost: String { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=localHost,setter=setLocalHost:) NSString* localHost; - (NSString*)localHost; - (void)setLocalHost :(NSString*)newLocalHost;
Default Value
""
Remarks
The LocalHost property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.
In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.
If the class is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).
NOTE: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.
LocalPort Property (SShell Module)
The TCP port in the local host where the module binds.
Syntax
public var localPort: Int32 { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=localPort,setter=setLocalPort:) int localPort; - (int)localPort; - (void)setLocalPort :(int)newLocalPort;
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.
Setting this property to 0 (default) enables the system to choose an open port at random. The chosen port will be returned by the LocalPort property after the connection is established.
LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this property when a connection is active will generate an error.
This property is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side.
SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded Property (SShell Module)
This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded).
Syntax
public var sshAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded: String { get {...} set {...} }
public var sshAcceptServerHostKeyEncodedB: Data { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded,setter=setSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded:) NSString* SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded; - (NSString*)SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded; - (void)setSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded :(NSString*)newSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded; @property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncodedB,setter=setSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncodedB:) NSData* SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncodedB; - (NSData*)SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncodedB; - (void)setSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncodedB :(NSData*)newSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded;
Default Value
""
Remarks
This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSHAcceptServerHostKeyStore and SSHAcceptServerHostKeySubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.
When SSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSHAcceptServerHostKeyStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSHAcceptServerHostKeySubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSHAcceptServerHostKeySubject is set to an empty string.
If an error occurs when setting this property an error will not be thrown. This property has a related method which will throw an error:
public func setSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncodedB(sshAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded: Data) throws public func setSSHAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded(sshAcceptServerHostKeyEncoded: String) throws
SSHAuthMode Property (SShell Module)
The authentication method to be used the module when calling SSHLogon .
Syntax
public var sshAuthMode: SshellSSHAuthModes { get {...} set {...} }
public enum SshellSSHAuthModes: Int32 { case amNone = 0 case amMultiFactor = 1 case amPassword = 2 case amPublicKey = 3 case amKeyboardInteractive = 4 case amGSSAPIWithMic = 5 case amCustom = 6 case amGSSAPIKeyex = 7 }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=SSHAuthMode,setter=setSSHAuthMode:) int SSHAuthMode; - (int)SSHAuthMode; - (void)setSSHAuthMode :(int)newSSHAuthMode;
Default Value
2
Remarks
The SSH Authentication specification (RFC 4252) specifies multiple methods by which a user can be authenticated by an SSH server. When a call is made to SSHLogon, the class will connect to the SSH server and establish the security layer. After the connection has been secured, the client will send an authentication request to the SSHHost containing the SSHUser. The server will respond containing a list of methods by which that user may be authenticated.
The class will attempt to authenticate the user by one of those methods based on the value of SSHAuthMode and other property values supplied by the user. Currently, the class supports the following authentication methods:
amNone (0) | No authentication will be performed. The current SSHUser value is ignored, and the connection will be logged in as anonymous. |
amMultiFactor (1) | This allows the class to attempt a multi-step authentication process. The class will send authentication data to the server based on the list of methods allowed for the current user and the authentication property values supplied. The class will continue to send authentication data until the server acknowledges authentication success. If the server rejects an authentication step, the class . |
amPassword (2) | The class will use the values of SSHUser and SSHPassword to authenticate the user. |
amPublicKey (3) | The class will use the values of SSHUser and the SSHCert* properties to authenticate the user. the SSHCert* properties must have a private key available for this authentication method to succeed. |
amKeyboardInteractive (4) | At the time of authentication, the class will fire the SSHKeyboardInteractive event containing instructions on how to complete the authentication step. (NOTE: amKeyboardInteractive is not supported in SSHTunnel). |
amGSSAPIWithMic (5) | This allows the class to attempt Kerberos authentication using the GSSAPI-WITH-MIC scheme. The client will try Kerberos authentication using the value of SSHUser (single sign-on), or if SSHPassword is specified as well, it will try Kerberos authentication with alternate credentials. This is currently supported only on Windows, unless using the Java edition, which also provides support for Linux and macOS. |
amCustom (6) | This allows the class caller to take over the authentication process completely. When amCustom is set, the class will fire the SSHCustomAuth event as necessary to complete the authentication process. |
amGSSAPIKeyex (7) | This allows the class to attempt Kerberos authentication using the GSSAPIKeyex scheme. The client will try Kerberos authentication using the value of SSHUser (single sign-on), or if SSHPassword is specified as well, it will try Kerberos authentication with alternate credentials. This is currently supported only on Windows, unless using the Java edition, which also provides support for Linux and macOS. |
Example (User/Password Auth):
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPassword
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHPassword = "password"
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
Example (Public Key Auth):
Control.SSHAuthMode = SftpSSHAuthModes.amPublicKey
Control.SSHUser = "username"
Control.SSHCertStoreType = SSHCertStoreTypes.cstPFXFile;
Control.SSHCertStore = "cert.pfx";
Control.SSHCertStorePassword = "certpassword";
Control.SSHCertSubject = "*";
Control.SSHLogon("server", 22)
SSHCertEncoded Property (SShell Module)
This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded).
Syntax
public var sshCertEncoded: String { get {...} set {...} }
public var sshCertEncodedB: Data { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=SSHCertEncoded,setter=setSSHCertEncoded:) NSString* SSHCertEncoded; - (NSString*)SSHCertEncoded; - (void)setSSHCertEncoded :(NSString*)newSSHCertEncoded; @property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=SSHCertEncodedB,setter=setSSHCertEncodedB:) NSData* SSHCertEncodedB; - (NSData*)SSHCertEncodedB; - (void)setSSHCertEncodedB :(NSData*)newSSHCertEncoded;
Default Value
""
Remarks
This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSHCertStore and SSHCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.
When SSHCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSHCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSHCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSHCertSubject is set to an empty string.
If an error occurs when setting this property an error will not be thrown. This property has a related method which will throw an error:
public func setSSHCertEncodedB(sshCertEncoded: Data) throws public func setSSHCertEncoded(sshCertEncoded: String) throws

Default Value
"MY"
Remarks
This is the name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
The SSHCertStoreType property denotes the type of the certificate store specified by SSHCertStore. If the store is password protected, specify the password in SSHCertStorePassword.
SSHCertStore is used in conjunction with the SSHCertSubject property to specify client certificates. If SSHCertStore has a value, and SSHCertSubject or SSHCertEncoded is set, a search for a certificate is initiated. Please see the SSHCertSubject property for details.
Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.
The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:
MY | A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys. |
CA | Certifying authority certificates. |
ROOT | Root certificates. |
When the certificate store type is PFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is PFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).

Default Value
"none,zlib"
Remarks
During the SSH handshake, this list will be used to negotiate the compression algorithm to be used between the client and server. This list is used for both directions: client to server and server to client. When negotiating algorithms, each side sends a list of all algorithms it supports or allows. The algorithm chosen for each direction is the first algorithm to appear in the sender's list that the receiver supports, so it is important to list multiple algorithms in preferential order. If no algorithm can be agreed upon, the class will raise an error and the connection will be aborted.
At least one supported algorithm must appear in this list. The following compression algorithms are supported by the class:
- zlib
- zlib@openssh.com
- none

@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=SSHHost,setter=setSSHHost:) NSString* SSHHost; - (NSString*)SSHHost; - (void)setSSHHost :(NSString*)newSSHHost;
Default Value
""
Remarks
The SSHHost property specifies the IP address (IP number in dotted internet format) or Domain Name of the remote host. It is set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is established.
If the SSHHost property is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated, and upon successful termination of the request, the SSHHost property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.
The SSHHost must be the same host that will be assumed for SSH as for the remote service being connected to.
SSHPassword Property (SShell Module)

Default Value
22
Remarks
The SSHPort specifies a service port on the SSH host to connect to.
A valid port number (a value between 1 and 65535) is required for the connection to take place. The property must be set before a connection is attempted and cannot be changed once a connection is established. Any attempt to change this property while connected will fail with an error.
SSHUser Property (SShell Module)
The username for SSH authentication.
Syntax
public var sshUser: String { get {...} set {...} }

Default Value
""
Remarks
This property is used to provide input for the process in the remote host.
If you are sending data to the remote host faster than it can process it, or faster than the network bandwidth allows, the outgoing queue might fill up. When this happens, Stdin .
This property is write-only.
Timeout Property (SShell Module)
A timeout for the module.
Syntax
public var timeout: Int32 { get {...} set {...} }
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=timeout,setter=setTimeout:) int timeout; - (int)timeout; - (void)setTimeout :(int)newTimeout;
Default Value
0
Remarks
If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations return immediately, potentially failing with an 'WOULDBLOCK' error if data can't be sent or received immediately.
If Timeout is set to a positive value, the class will automatically retry each operation that would otherwise result in a 'WOULDBLOCK' error for a maximum of Timeout seconds.
The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.
If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class .
Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.
The default value for the Timeout property is 0 (asynchronous operation).
Config Method (SShell Module)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Syntax
- (NSString*)config:(NSString*)configurationString;
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
Connect Method (SShell Module)
Connects to the SSH host without logging in.
Syntax
public func connect() throws -> Void
- (void)connect;
Remarks
This method establishes a connection with the SSHHost but does not log in. In most cases it is recommended to use the SSHLogon method which will both establish a connection and log in to the server.

SSHCustomAuth Event (SShell Module)
Fired when the component is doing custom authentication.
Syntax
func onSSHCustomAuth(packet: inout String)
- (void)onSSHCustomAuth:(NSString**)packet;
Remarks
SSHCustomAuth is fired during the user authentication stage of the SSH logon process if SSHAuthMode is set to amCustom. Packet contains the raw last SSH packet sent by the server, in HEX-encoded format.
The client should create a new raw SSH packet to send to the server and set Packet to the HEX-encoded representation of the packet to send.
In all cases, Packet will start with the message type field.
To read the incoming packet call DecodePacket and then use the GetSSHParam and GetSSHParamBytes methods. To create a packet use the SetSSHParam method and then call EncodePacket to obtain a HEX-encoded value and assign this to the Packet parameter.
SSHKeyboardInteractive Event (SShell Module)
Fired when the component receives a request for user input from the server.
Syntax
func onSSHKeyboardInteractive(name: String, instructions: String, prompt: String, response: inout String, echoResponse: Bool)
- (void)onSSHKeyboardInteractive:(NSString*)name :(NSString*)instructions :(NSString*)prompt :(NSString**)response :(BOOL)echoResponse;
Remarks
SSHKeyboardInteractive is fired during the user authentication stage of the SSH logon process. During authentication, the class will request a list of available authentication methods for the SSHUser. For example, if the SSHHost responds with "keyboard-interactive", the class will fire this event to allow the client application to set the password.
During authentication, the SSH server may respond with a request for the user's authentication information. Name is a server-provided value associated with the authentication method such as "CRYPTOCard Authentication". Instructions will contain specific instructions, also supplied by the server, for how the user should respond.
Along with these values, the server will also send at least one input Prompt to be displayed to and filled out by the user. Response should be set to the user's input, and will be sent back in the user authentication information response. EchoResponse is a server recommendation for whether or not the user's response should be echoed back during input.
Note: the server may send several prompts in a single packet. The class will fire the SSHKeyboardInteractive event once for each prompt.
SSHServerAuthentication Event (SShell Module)
Fired after the server presents its public key to the client.
Syntax
func onSSHServerAuthentication(hostKey: Data, fingerprint: String, keyAlgorithm: String, certSubject: String, certIssuer: String, status: String, accept: inout Bool)
- (void)onSSHServerAuthentication:(NSData*)hostKey :(NSString*)fingerprint :(NSString*)keyAlgorithm :(NSString*)certSubject :(NSString*)certIssuer :(NSString*)status :(int*)accept;
Remarks
This event is where the client can decide whether to continue with the connection process or not. If the public key is known to be a valid key for the SSH server, Accept should be set to True within the event. Otherwise, the server will not be authenticated and the connection will be broken.
Accept will be True only if either HostKey or Fingerprint is identical to the value of SSHAcceptServerHostKey.
Accept may be set to True manually to accept the server host key.
Note that SSH's security inherently relies on client verification of the host key. Ignoring the host key and always setting Accept to true is strongly discouraged, and could cause potentially serious security vulnerabilities in your application. It is recommended that clients maintain a list of known keys for each server and check HostKey against this list each time a connection is attempted.
Host Key contains the full binary text of the key, in the same format used internally by SSH.
Fingerprint holds the SHA-256 hash of HostKey in the hex-encoded form: 0a:1b:2c:3d. To configure the hash algorithm used to calculate this value see SSHFingerprintHashAlgorithm.
KeyAlgorithm identifies the host key algorithm. Supported values are:
- ssh-rsa
- ssh-dss
- rsa-sha2-256
- rsa-sha2-512
- x509v3-sign-rsa
- x509v3-sign-dss
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp256
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp384
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp521
CertSubject is the subject of the certificate. This is only applicable when KeyAlgorithm is "x509v3-sign-rsa" or "x509v3-sign-dss".
CertIssuer is the issuer of the certificate. This is only applicable when KeyAlgorithm is "x509v3-sign-rsa" or "x509v3-sign-dss".
Status is reserved for future use.
SSHStatus Event (SShell Module)
Shows the progress of the secure connection.
Syntax
func onSSHStatus(message: String)
- (void)onSSHStatus:(NSString*)message;
Remarks
The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.
Stderr Event (SShell Module)
Fired when data (complete lines) come in through stderr.
Syntax
func onStderr(text: Data)
- (void)onStderr:(NSData*)text;
Remarks
The Stderr event is fired every time the process on the remote host outputs a line in its error output. The incoming data is provided through the Text parameter.
Stdout Event (SShell Module)
Fired when data (complete lines) come in through stdout.
Syntax
func onStdout(text: Data)
- (void)onStdout:(NSData*)text;
Remarks
The Stdout event is fired every time the process on the remote host outputs a line in its standard output. The incoming data is provided through the Text parameter.

firewallType
FirewallTypes
Default Value: 0
This property determines the type of firewall to connect through. The applicable values are as follows:
host
String
Default Value: ""
This property contains the name or IP address of firewall (optional). If a is given, the requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.
If this property is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, this property is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, the class .

This property contains a user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall. If the is specified, this property and properties are used to connect and authenticate to the given Firewall. If the authentication fails, the class .
Constructors
public init()
Config Settings (SShell Module)
The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.SShell Config Settings
Default is true.
class.Config("EncodedTerminalModes=" + Encoding.Default.GetString(new byte[] { 53,0,0,0,0,0 })");
In the above example the first byte is the opcode (53 for echo). The next 4 bytes represent the opcode value which is a uint 32. The last byte is always a null character to end the string. This example sets echo to off just as in the example for TerminalModes.
Default is false.
class.Config("TerminalModes=53=0");
In the above example 53 is the opcode (for echo) and the value is 0. So this sets echo to off.
sshell.Config("UpdateTerminalSize");
SSHClient Config Settings
If MaxChannelDataLength > 0 and ChannelDataEOL is a non-empty string the class will internally buffer data waiting to fire SSHChannelData until either MaxChannelDataLength is reached or ChannelDataEOL is found, whichever comes first. Query ChannelDataEOLFound to know which condition was met. The buffer is reset any time SSHChannelData fires.
ChannelDataEOL and MaxChannelDataLength MUST be set together or unexpected behavior could occur.
This config is only valid when queried inside SSHChannelData, MaxChannelDataLength > 0, and ChannelDataEOL is non-empty.
Most SSH servers expect the SSH version string to have the expected format "SSH-protocol version-software version". See above for an example.
Value | Description |
0 (Disabled - default) | No communication with Pageant is attempted. |
1 (Enabled) | Pageant authentication is used if available. If Pageant is not running, or does not contain the expected key no error is thrown. |
2 (Required) | Only Pageant authentication is used. If Pageant is not running, or does not contain the expected key an error is thrown. |
Example enabling Pageant:
component.Config("EnablePageantAuth=1");
component.SSHUser = "sshuser";
component.SSHLogon("localhost", 22);
Note: This functionality is only available on Windows.
Example (for setting the threshold to 500 MB):

0 (None) | No messages are logged. |
1 (Info - Default) | Informational events such as SSH handshake messages are logged. |

If MaxChannelDataLength > 0 and ChannelDataEOL is a non-empty string the class will internally buffer data waiting to fire SSHChannelData until either MaxChannelDataLength is reached or ChannelDataEOL is found, whichever comes first. Query ChannelDataEOLFound to know which condition was met. The buffer is reset any time SSHChannelData fires.
ChannelDataEOL and MaxChannelDataLength MUST be set together or unexpected behavior could occur.
component.Config("NegotiatedStrictKex")
This provides an easy way to automatically reply to prompts with the password if one is presented by the server. The password will be auto-filled in the Response parameter of the SSHKeyboardInteractive event in the case of a match.
The following special characters are supported for pattern matching:
? | Any single character. |
* | Any characters or no characters (e.g., C*t matches Cat, Cot, Coast, Ct). |
[,-] | A range of characters (e.g., [a-z], [a], [0-9], [0-9,a-d,f,r-z]). |
\ | The slash is ignored and exact matching is performed on the next character. |
If these characters need to be used as a literal in a pattern, then they must be escaped by surrounding them with brackets []. Note: "]" and "-" do not need to be escaped. See below for the escape sequences:
Character | Escape Sequence |
? | [?] |
* | [*] |
[ | [[] |
\ | [\] |
For example, to match the value [Something].txt, specify the pattern [[]Something].txt.
The default value is 0, meaning this setting is not used.
component.Config("SignedSSHCert=ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...");
The algorithm such as ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com in the above string is used as part of the authentication process. To use a different algorithm simply change this value. For instance all of the following are acceptable with the same signed public key:
- ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...
- rsa-sha2-256-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...
- rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@openssh.com AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAAB...
component.Config("SSHAcceptServerCAKey=ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQAB...");
SSHClient.Config("SSHAcceptServerHostKeyFingerprint=0a:1b:2c:3d");
If the server's fingerprint matches one of the values supplied, the class will accept the host key.
- MD5
- SHA1
- SHA256 (default)
The default value is 0 meaning no keep alives will be sent.
Note: The SSHReverseTunnel class uses a default value of 30.

The setting should be a comma separated list of algorithms. At runtime the class will evaluate the specified algorithms and if the algorithm is applicable to the certificate specified in SSHCert it will be used. If the algorithm is not applicable the class will evaluate the next algorithm. Possible values are:
- ssh-rsa
- rsa-sha2-256
- rsa-sha2-512
- ssh-dss
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp256
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp384
- ecdsa-sha2-nistp521
- ssh-ed25519
- x509v3-sign-rsa
- x509v3-sign-dss
The default value in Windows is ssh-rsa,rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512,ssh-dss,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,ssh-ed25519.
rsa-sha2-256 and rsa-sha2-512 notes
The class will query the server for supported algorithms when connecting. If the server indicates support for rsa-sha2-256 or rsa-sha2-512 and the algorithm is present in the list defined by this setting (as in the default value), that algorithm will be used instead of ssh-rsa even when ssh-rsa appears first in the list.
For the rsa-sha2-256 and rsa-sha2-512 algorithms to be automatically preferred the server must support the ext-info-c mechanism. In practice, older servers do not support this and in that case ssh-rsa will be used since it appears first in the list. Newer servers do support this mechanism and in that case rsa-sha2-256 or rsa-sha2-512 will be used even though it appears after ssh-rsa.
This behavior has been carefully designed to provide maximum compatibility while automatically using more secure algorithms when connecting to servers which support them.
*SSH-1.99-*,*SSH-2.0-*,*SSH-2.99-*
Since both client and server must implement strict key exchange to effectively mitigate the Terrapin attack, the class provides options to further control the behavior in different scenarios. Possible values for this setting are:
0 | Disabled. Strict key exchange is not supported in the class. |
1 (default) | Enabled, but not enforced. This setting enables strict key exchange, but if the remote host does not support strict key exchange the connection is still allowed to continue. |
2 | Enabled, but reject affected algorithms if the remote host does not support strict key exchange. If the remote host supports strict key exchange all algorithms may be used. If the remote host does not support strict key exchange the connection will only continue if the selected encryption and MAC algorithms are not affected by the Terrapin attack. |
3 | Required. If the remote host does not support strict key exchange the connection will fail. |
When True (default) the class will wait for a response to the channel close message until the responses have been received, the server closes the connection, or Timeout seconds is reached.
When False the class will still send the channel close messages but will not wait for a response and will proceed to close the connection.
When set to True the class will initiate the disconnection sequence by sending SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT but will not close the connection, and instead will wait for the server to close the connection. Setting this to True may be beneficial in circumstances where many connections are being established, to avoid port exhaustion when sockets are in a TIME_WAIT state. Allowing the server to close the connection avoids the TIME_WAIT state of socket on the client machine.
When set to False (default) the client will close the connection. It is recommended to use this value unless there is a specific need to change it.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.
In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.
The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).
Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.
In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.
If the class is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).
Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.
LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.
This; setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.
If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.
If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.
The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.
