Hi Steve,

My apologies... there is a mistake in the documentation for tsNet which I only just noticed.

The array element for the SSH private key should be tSettings["ssh_private_key"], not tSettings["ssh_priv_key"].

So if you change the following line:

    put tPrivKey into tSettings["ssh_priv_key"]

to:

    put tPrivKey into tSettings["ssh_private_key"]

you should be right to go!

(I will get this fixed in the documentation for the next version)

Best Regards,

Charles

Hi Steve,

The tsNet command only requires the SSH private key, so that is ok.

I will test again here to make sure there is nothing else going on in LC 9.0 DP6....

Just to check though, I assume your private key does not require a passphrase?

Another thing to try is to download the following simple stack:

https://downloads.techstrategies.com.au/tsnet/debug_liburl.livecode

Run that stack at the same time as your own, and click "Start Debug" before you try make the SSH connection.

It should provide some additional debug information that may shed more light on what is actually happening.

Charles

Hi Charles,

One other thing… in looking at the .ppk file, it contains both “public lines” and "private lines”. All I see in the ssh key file is private.

Not sure that make any difference, but thought I’d mention it.

Best,

Steve

Hi Charles,

Thank you so much for reply!

I converted the key file as you described, however, I’m still getting the error 67 (authentication error) when running the script.

Any further help would be greatly appreciated.

Best,

Hi Steve,

It looks like you are using a SSH private key in PuTTY format (.ppk). tsNet requires it to be in OpenSSH format.

That is easy to fix though, you can convert the .ppk with PuttyGen.

To do this, open PuttyGen and load the .ppk file. Then select "Conversions" -> "Export OpenSSH key".

Apart from that, just make sure that your call to tsNetGet includes the full path of the file you want to download.

Hope that helps,

Cheers,

Charles

Well, still no luck in getting it to work, but getting closer…

I found a sample file linked to on livecode.com <http://livecode.com/>. Modifying it to use the key file, I have:

on mouseUp
   local tHeaders, tResult, tSettings
   put “xxxxxxxx" into tSettings["username"]
   put URL "binfile:D:\private.ppk" into tPrivKey
   put tPrivKey into tSettings["ssh_priv_key"]
   tsNetInit
put tsNetGet("1", "sftp://secure.xxxxxxxx.us/";, tHeaders, "transferComplete", tSettings) into tResult
end mouseUp

However, it returns:

tsneterr: (67) Authentication failure

Again, I can access the sftp site with no problems using the WinSCP ftp client and the key file.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,

Steve MacLean

Hi All,

Looking to use tsNet to connect to a SFTP server that uses username and a private key instead of a password. The private key is contained in a file.

I use WinSCP and can link the connection to the file and can connect fine.

In LC, I’ve set the CABundle to the file, but am not sure this is how it’s supposed to work. Getting an auth error when doing tsNetGet.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve MacLean
