Using Normal SSH to get on the server

Post by hardesty »

We have been testing the WingFTP software for the last several weeks. So far it has been pretty good, but we have a few issues. One seems to be that when we enable sftp we can no longer use ssh. The sftp works fine on port 22, but ssh just disconnects after logging in.

We see this in the log file:



[02] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:34 (0000009) Connected from 172.16.6.3 (local address 172.16.6.26, port 22)
[01] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:34 (0000009) SSH session receive user name:hardesty
[01] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:34 (0000009) SSH session receive password of user hardesty
[01] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:34 (0000009) Username and password unmatched, the authentication will start again later.
[01] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:44 (0000009) SSH session receive user name:hardesty
[01] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:44 (0000009) SSH session receive password of user hardesty
[01] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:44 (0000009) SSH authentication completed successfully. Client information:SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.1
[02] Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:05:46 (0000009) Closed session,disconnected from 172.16.6.3


And this while logging in:


47 [15:07] hardesty@kallisti > ssh blackhole
hardesty@blackhole's password:
Read from remote host blackhole: Connection reset by peer
Connection to blackhole closed.
48 [15:07] hardesty@kallisti >


We are not using client software, just the typical ssh program that comes with RedHat or other UNIX based servers. I do not want to have to be forced to use telnet to make this work. What are my options?

Please use SFTP client software to access it.

How would that work from a UNIX prompt? I need an ssh shell to get onto the server. What other options do you have?

You can use the client software "sftp".
