You should now be able to connect to the SSH Server using your public key: Once the public key has been uploaded or imported for your account in the SSH Server, configure the SSH Client to enable public key authentication on the Login tab: To do this, export the public key using the Client key manager:įor help with importing the public key into Bitvise SSH Server, check the Public Key Authentication section of our SSH Server Usage FAQ. If the SSH Server does not allow you to connect using password authentication, or does not allow you to upload the key, you will need to send the public key to the server administrator using an alternate method of communication. If you are able to connect to the SSH Server using password authentication, you can connect to the server and upload the public key using the Client key manager: If you enter a passphrase, you will need to provide it every time the keypair is used for authentication.īefore you can use public key authentication, the public key for the keypair you have generated must be configured in the SSH Server. You can choose a passphrase with which to protect the keypair. In SSH Client versions 7.xx and higher, the setting Sensitive information accessibility on the Login tab controls whether a keypair stored in the profile can be read by another Windows user, or on another computer. It may be useful to store the keypair in a profile if the profile is going to be used on other computers, or by a job that runs as a different Windows account on the same computer. When the keypair is stored globally, it is stored in the Windows registry for the current user, under HKCU\Software\Bitvise\Keypairs. If you have saved a named SSH Client profile, the keypair generation interface will offer to store the keypair either in the profile, or globally. Generate either an ECDSA keypair, or an RSA keypair of size 2048 bits or larger. Only 1024-bit DSA keys are interoperable in SSH, and this key size is no longer considered adequate when using the DSA algorithm. Unless required for compatibility reasons, do not generate a DSA keypair. ![]() Press the Generate button to generate a new keypair: To generate a keypair using Bitvise SSH Client, run the graphical SSH Client, and open the Client key manager: To use public key authentication, the client from which you are connecting needs to have a public/private keypair. If this is the first time you are using public keys, we recommend the page Public keys in SSH. A private key should never be sent to another party.A keypair consists of a private key and a public key, which are separate.Client authentication keys are separate from server authentication keys (host keys).Public keys, in the way they are commonly used in SSH, are not X.509 certificates.You wish to configure public key authentication between the SSH Server and Client.īefore you configure public key authentication, it is important to understand:.You have installed Bitvise SSH Client on the computer from which you wish to connect.You have configured the SSH Server for access using SFTP, for Git access, or another purpose.You have recently installed Bitvise SSH Server.This section of Getting Started assumes that: Configuring public key authentication with Bitvise SSH Client
