Authentication property
Determines which authentication type is used.
Syntax
object.Authentication [= value]
The Authentication(object) syntax has these parts:
| object | An expression evaluating to an object of type wodTelnetDLX |
Remarks
Authentication property allows you to select type of authentication you want to use with the server. Most commonly, you will choose
authPassword authentication, which requires
Login and
Password properties to be set before
Connect method is called. Once wodTelnetDLX connects to the server, it will authenticate you ONLY with username and password.
If you prefer to authenticate yourself using your
PrivateKey (server MUST have your public key in that case), you should set this property to
authCertificate, and you should set
Login and
Certificate properties accordingly.
If you're using SSH protocols, then
Certificate property must hold at least Private key - no matter if you generated it or loaded it. If SSL protocols are used, you must load or generate also valid certificate that is sent to the client. If you allow any of above (
Password and
Certificate/Key) authentications to take place, set this property to
authBoth value. In this case wodTelnetDLX will try to use both methods.
Different server implementations may require either one or both of the authentications are successful to login to the server. Please note that in this case you must set all three properties:
Login,
Password and
Certificate.
wodTelnetDLX also supports NTLM authentication. For this, both Login and Password must be set prior to calling Connect method.
To set
Certificate, use Certificate Management object (included in the setup package) that will allow you to generate (and store) required keys and certificates.
