Get SSH Server Authentication Methods

See more SSH Examples

Demonstrates how to get the authentication methods of an SSH server.

This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.78 or greater.

AutoIt

Local $bSuccess = False

; This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$oSsh = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Ssh")

; To get the authentication methods offered by an SSH server, we first connect.
$bSuccess = $oSsh.Connect("example.com",22)
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSsh.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; Next, we call GetAuthMethods to receive a comma separated list of authentication methods
Local $sAuthMethods = $oSsh.GetAuthMethods()
If ($oSsh.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSsh.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; For example: publickey,password,keyboard-interactive
ConsoleWrite("Authentication methods suported by this serve: " & $sAuthMethods & @CRLF)

; IMPORTANT:
; Getting the authentication methods will intentionally disconnect from the server.
; We'll need to re-connect, etc. to continue..

; For example..
$bSuccess = $oSsh.Connect("example.com",22)
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSsh.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

$bSuccess = $oSsh.AuthenticatePw("myLogin","myPassword")
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSsh.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

ConsoleWrite("SSH Authentication successful." & @CRLF)

; ...

$oSsh.Disconnect
