SSH FTP Connection faisl due to keys?

Post by rsbetts »

Hello,

I have tried using 1.3c and the latest v2 of Core FTp client but I cannot get it to connect to a particular SFTP server.

The server must use certificates. I am prompted to accept the servers public certificate, which is fine but I still cannot connect. I believe my client also needs to authenticate using keys instead of a password and I do not think my client is sending a public key to the server.

The log is below, can anyone help? "Playing with the settings I can create 2 different logs (below). I am told the server is expecting AES (I have no access to the server)

Connecting to xxxx port 22
Server version: SSH-2.0-XFB.Gateway 670 Unix
version: SSH-2.0-SSH-Local:

Hi I did get this working, but I'm not sure how if i am honest! However that was a test server i was connecting to and now have the same problem with the real server.

It appears the public key is not being sent to the SFTP server from my Core FTP client, but i do not understand why?

Thanks

Rich
