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.

#include <CkSocketW.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    CkSocketW socket;

    success = socket.SshOpenTunnel(L"ssh.example.com",22);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",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.
    const wchar_t *sshPassword = L"mySshPassword";
    success = socket.SshAuthenticatePw(L"sshUser",sshPassword);
    if (success == false) {
        wprintf(L"%s\n",socket.lastErrorText());
        return;
    }

    wprintf(L"SSH authentication succeeded.\n");
    }
