Thanks for your reply Simanti... I issue turned out to be something related to username/password authentication... Now it works ... thanks Githa
<<<<<<<<<<<< If OpenSSH is configured to such that "PasswordAuthentication=no" for security reasons, Jira is unable to connect to the SSH server. This affects CVS integration (and also seems to affect the SVN plugin as well.) This may also be causing problems with key-pair SSH authentication as well. Turning the PasswordAuthentication setting off keeps the SSH client from sending the password to the server in cleartext through the negotiated encrypted tunnel, this approach is vulnerable to interception and later brute-force decryption of the tunnel. Turning the setting off causes the SSH client to encrypt the password with the negotiated private key before sending it to the server. FYI - When this setting is off, a regular command line SSH client uses the "keyboard-interactive" authentication method instead. The problem appears to be in the Jira's use of the Jsch package. I had originally posted this to Jsch's wiki as a potential issue with their library. However, they modified the result with information about how to configure their product to support keyboard-interactive authentication. The information can be found here: http://wiki.jsch.org/index.php?PasswordAuthentication - it looks like a simple fix and they've provided some links to reference code. It's also worthwhile to note that Eclipse (both for build-in CVS connectivity and the Subsclipe plugin) uses Jsch and does not have trouble connecting to an SSH server with the PasswordAuthentication setting turned off. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> -----Original Message----- From: Conover, Simanti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 02, 2007 2:16 PM To: Githa Ramalingam; Atsuhiko Yamanaka; [email protected] Cc: Howard Harris Subject: RE: [JSch-users] Using tunneling I tried a different port for SFTP and it works, not so sure about ssh, although it should Simanti Olive Eswitch Engineer III - Santa Cruz 831-4576154 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Githa Ramalingam Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2007 12:03 PM To: 'Githa Ramalingam'; 'Atsuhiko Yamanaka'; [email protected] Cc: 'Howard Harris' Subject: Re: [JSch-users] Using tunneling Hi, Can jsch connect to anyother port than 22?

So I created a tunnel from my server like Ssh -L 2022:yy.yyy.yyy.yy:22 [EMAIL PROTECTED] With this setting when I ssh to my localhost at port 2022 I am getting forwarded to the yy.yyy.yyy.yy. Manually it is working when I do ssh -p 2022 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Now my question is through the application, where I use the jsch, it is not working. How can I figure out where it is getting throwed off? Is there a command line utility in jsch through which I can verify that the tunnel is working? Your help will be greatly appreciated.
