Re: SSH on Web server (General questions)

Hi Damba,

Yes, the application will display the results of the remote execution on a web page. I was concerned with the idea of anything else to be mandatory installed on the web server in order to make wodSSH work (ports or so). All the tests I've been able to conduct so far with the source code running on localhost have used the same machine as remote device (I've installed CYGWIN to be able to negotiate SSH traffic). Therefore I was unsure if the SSH service was needed anyway on the future *real* web server to let wodSSH establish the communication over the right port.

Thanks for your help :)!

Hi Ana,

If I understood you correctly, you wish to allow client who browse your page, to use SSH to *some* server. The connection in that case is made by web server machine, but presented to web client as web page.

If that's the case, then all you need in order to run wodSSH.Net from ASP.Net is installing it. You don't need anything else.

Regards,
Damba
