Problem is that we don't actually know what is on the far end. We are only assuming/speculating that ssh is the vehicle. Further, we don't know the precise flavor of server software in use on the far end. Had a partner site that was 100% positive that they were using ssh. Not only were they actually using TLS, but the server software claimed to be RFC compliant but actually only worked with Windows clients. I think we all agree that the statement that "... they don't require any authentication of keys..." doesn't compute. A puzzlement :-) -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Kirk Wolf Sent: Wednesday, July 15, 2009 5:04 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: z/OS Mainframe - SFTP - Disable Publickey Authentication and only use Password? ssh (used by sftp) won't work unless *host* keys are exchanged when the session is setup. The client has a little database of known host keys and will fail if the server has a different key. A configuration option allows the OpenSSH client to accept a new host key automatically, otherwise a interactive user is required to acknowledge acceptance. User authentication can be done in a number of ways, including keys and password. The password is *never* sent in the clear.
