Just in case you run out of features to add: :D
Kerberos 5 would be cool, too.

I'll propagate your request to author of Kerberos code.

Currently I'am working on SSPI authentication for PuTTY. I will probably use a patch from Certified Security Solutions (<invalid hyperlink removed by admin>).
As this patch includes Kerberos autehtication for SSH1, maybe I will include this feature, too.

WinSCP not using Kerberos Tickets

2005-02-05 16:35

Pardon my ignorance :? ... I use Keberos Authentication (MIT Leash Version 2.6.3.20040525) for obtaining a Kerberos ticket which both my e-mail programs then can use to log me into the server securely (I use Mulberry and Eudora). When I set up WinSCP to "Attempt MIT Kerberos 5 GSSAPI Authentication," I still get prompted for a password and the ticket I've already obtained is not used.

What am I doing wrong :?:

Thanks!

Log File

2005-02-07 18:36

Here is the log file from start-up to closing the connection (I've edited some of the data to obscure the actual user names/IP addresses). As you can see, it does prompt me for a password even though I've already got a Kerberos 5 ticket.

Thanks for your help.

I does not looks like your SSH server supportes GSSAPI (Kerberos). Are you sure it does? Are you able to login to it using Kerberos with any other SSH client? Which one?

Hmm ... I do use Kerberos for POP3 and IMAP e-mail with the University's server but I don't know enough to know whether I'm dealing with a whole different matter when using SFTP. I don't use any other SSH Client. I'll have to check with the IT folks to see if they have an idea regarding this. It may be that I cannot use Kerberos to upload/download to the AFS.

I'll get back to you.

Thank you,

werdhi
