Authenticate an SSH Tunnel with a Password

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.SshAuthenticatePw, which authenticates an SSH tunnel session using a login and password. Call SshOpenTunnel first.

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let socket = CkoSocket()!

    success = socket.sshOpenTunnel(sshHostname: "ssh.example.com", sshPort: 22)
    if success == false {
        print("\(socket.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    //  Authenticate the SSH tunnel session with a login and password.
    //  The SSH password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
    var sshPassword: String? = "mySshPassword"
    success = socket.sshAuthenticatePw(sshLogin: "sshUser", sshPassword: sshPassword)
    if success == false {
        print("\(socket.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("SSH authentication succeeded.")
