How to connect SSH WinFormClient to an OpenSSH server ?

Question

I'am trying to connect to an OpenSSH server with your SSH WinFormClient example. With Putty i don't have any problems but with the example I just have this...

Exception occured: Rebex.Net.SshException: Authentication method not supported. Supported methods: 'keyboard-interactive'.

at Rebex.Net.SshSession.BhTajBZ(String , String )

at Rebex.Net.SshSession.cCIjvV(String , String , SshPrivateKey , SshGssApiCredentials )

at Rebex.Net.SshSession.Authenticate(String userName, String password, SshPrivateKey privateKey)

at Rebex.Net.Ssh.Login(String userName, String password, SshPrivateKey privateKey)

at Rebex.Samples.MainForm.menuItemConnect_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in C:Program Files (x86)RebexTotal Pack for .NET 2.0SSH Shell for .NET 2.0samplesvs2008sourceWinFormClientMainForm.cs:line 344

I tried some modifications in the example but I don't know what to do.

Thanks

Would it be possible to copy&paste WinFormClient's communication log (preferably at 'Debug' log level - see its Connection dialog) and either add it to your forum post or mail it to support@rebex.net? That should make it possible to tell what is going on.

There is no log option in the connection dialog of this example. If you send me something to do a test I will be glad to do so. I sent to you all I got.

I use your "Rebex SSH Client" example tying to learn something. I simply use this example exactly the same way than Putty that works well with my OpenSSH server.

I just tried the SimpleWinFormClient and it connects like a charm. The SimpleWinFormClient use SshTerminalControl and WinFormClient use a Ssh connection with a TerminalControl.

Hope it help.

Finally it is simply my username that was mispelled... It's really not a good error message...
