Hi all
"..I was not sure of that but got confirmation here
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/configuring-ibm-i-ssh-sftp-and-scp-clients
-use-public-key-authentication .. " , so this mean that i have contact the
server FTP administrator to ask him that should enable the connection via
key authentication ?
Based on my tests following the suggestion from Scott, I would try the
following.
If you don't have one yet, install an ssh client such as putty on your
workstation (note: Windows 11 provides one with ssh command).
- using your ssh client, connect to your system with the user profile
which will be used later for the transfers
- follow the IBM document above to create a private/public key pair
- use an ssh session to create .ssh subdirectory with proper authority
in the home directory on the target system if it does not exist
- use an sftp session against the target system to send your public key
file and install it in .ssh subdirectory
- if there is no authorized_keys and no authorized_keys2 file (which
would contain already installed public keys and are usually used by
default by the ssh server), you can just rename your public key file
with authorized_keys
- if those files already exist, you can add the public key file to them
with cat publicfile >> authorized_keys
There is also a ssh-copy-id command which can do the transfer and the
addition at the same time, but I never used it.
If you don't succeed, you can contact the administrator to discuss a way
to proceed.
Thanks
