Hi Steve,
Ahh... it's been a while since I wrote the SSH component of tsNet and
I've been unfortunately relying on the documentation I wrote when
checking your code!
tSettings["ssh_private_key"] must provide the "path" to the private key,
not the contents of the private key (another documentation issue for me
to fix!).
So your code should actually look like
on mouseUp
local tHeaders, tResult, tSettings
put “xxxxxxxx" into tSettings["username"]
put "D:\private.ppk" into tSettings["ssh_private_key"]
tsNetInit
put tsNetGet("1", "sftp://secure.xxxxxxxx.us/";, tHeaders,
"transferComplete", tSettings) into tResult
end mouseUp
Hopefully that will get it working for you!
Cheers,
Charles

Hi Charles,
Again, thank you for all your help!!
I made the change below, and indeed didn’t get the error any more. However, I
still wasn’t getting anything returned.
I ran your debug stack along side it and got this:
Hostname in DNS cache was stale, zapped
Trying xx.xx.xx.xx...
TCP_NODELAY set
Connected to secure.xxxxxxxxxx.us (xx.xx.xx.xx) port 22 (#3)
SSH MD5 fingerprint: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
SSH authentication methods available: publickey
Using SSH private key file '-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY——
<private key listed>
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
'
SSH public key authentication failed: Unable to extract public key from private
key file: Unable to open private key file
Not sure about were to go from here… I redid the export of the .ppk in PuttyGen
and still get the same thing. There is no password protecting the key.
Any further help would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Steve MacLean

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.

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
