I've finished a rough first version of SSH in squeak. There are many
holes, but it will connect to a remote server, login and run a pty
with a shell. As a SSHD server, there is no users to login with and
there is no terminal server or shell command - see code in PS to
run. There are issues with TeletypeWindow refreshing when data
arrives, which I don't know how to solve. I click on the window to
refresh it. Perhaps someone else could figure this out.
Once you have loaded the packages specified below, you can run the
following command to connect a pty to a remote machine:
SSH runBy: username to: host port: 22.
specifying the appropriate username and host. This will open a
TeletypeWindow and start connection to the server.
To get this software, load the following packages, in order:
From SqueakMap:
Telnet
Cryptography Team Package
NOTE: Telnet doesn't load from SqueakMap, so you will need to
download it and file it in from he FileList.
Then from the Monticello repository at: http://squeaksource.com/
Cryptography
SSL
SSH
Here are some of the shortcomings:
At the transport layer:
Only supports 3des-cbc and diffieHellman group 1
At the UserAuth layer:
Only supports keyboard-interactive type of login. Does not support
publickey login.
At the Connection layer:
Many messages not supported. Only pty and shell commands issued.
Data window sizing not used or supported. X11 forwarding not
supported. Etc.
enjoy,
Rob
PS, to run SSH as a server, run the following code. There is work to
be done here:
SSHServer new
loadDSACertificateFile: 'certificates/dsa.cert' privateKeyFile:
'certificates/dsa.key';
startAtPort: 5222.
