Question:

SFTP - keyboard interactive authentication

Nov 25 '13 at 09:06

I've been using a sftp source in the Chilkat. I can implement the normal logon type in sftp using both userid and password. However, I don't know about the source code of "keyboard interactive authentication" how can I develop the part of authentication.

I would like you to provide me with some of the code samples.

For your reference, This list are my setting information. - Host : aaaa.bbbbbb.com - Logon Type : Interactive - user id : aaaaa - Password : xxxxxx - Domain : abc.ext


Answer

The Chilkat SSH/SFTP components will automatically use keyboard interactive if supported by the SSH server. If both password authentication AND keyboard interactive authentication are supported, then normal password authentication is used.

In summary -- you shouldn't need to worry about whether authentication is "password" or "keyboard interactive".
