Hi,

Try setting trust="true" like the following:

<sshexec host="xxx.com" username="root" password="matbeers" trust="true">
</sshexec>

I think if you don't set trust to true, the host key (which is on the
server) will be rejected by your ant ssh task.

Cheers,

Jian

I am using the sshexec task in the following build.xml, under XP Pro

   </target>
</project>

From which I get the following console output:

E:\swd\devt\eclipseWkspce\Sysadmin\tomcat\ant\ssh-stuff>ant
Buildfile: build.xml

sshtry:
 [sshexec] Connecting to xxx.com:22

BUILD FAILED
E:\swd\devt\eclipseWkspce\Sysadmin\tomcat\ant\ssh-stuff\build.xml:9:
com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: reject HostKey

Total time: 3 seconds
E:\swd\devt\eclipseWkspce\Sysadmin\tomcat\ant\ssh-stuff>

The host xxx.com (obfuscated) has a working ssh server that I am able to
invoke using putty
(from the same workstation as the above sshexec attempt), or openssh on
my linux
workstation. In both cases I'm using the default password
authentication, which
is what I wanted to do using sshexec.

Questions
1. What does reject HostKey mean ?
2. Might putty and sshexec/jsch be in conflict, occupying the same
workstation?
3. Are there any preparatory configuration steps for use of sshexec that
I have missed.
   It took me a while to figure out that the jsch.jar is not included
in the ant-1.6.2 dist,
   perhaps there is something else I should have set up.

Bill.
