SSH Authenticate with Password and Private Key

See more SSH Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Ssh.AuthenticatePwPk method, which authenticates with a server that requires both a password and a private key. The first argument is the username, the second is the password, and the third is an SshKey private key.

Note: The private-key path is relative to the application's current working directory. Supply the path to your own key file.

-- Important: See this note about string length limitations for strings returned by sp_OAMethod calls.
