With it, you can remotely execute programs, transfer +files, or use a secure and transparent tunnel for your remote programs. +The SSH protocol is encrypted, ensures data integrity, and provides strong +means of authenticating both the server of the client. The library hides +a lot of technical details from the SSH protocol, but this does not +mean that you should not try to know about and understand these details. + +libssh is a Free Software / Open Source project. The libssh library +is distributed under LGPL license. The libssh project has nothing to do with +"libssh2", which is a completly different and independant project. + +This tutorial concentrates for its main part on the "client" side of libssh. +To learn how to accept incoming SSH connexions (how to write a SSH server), +you'll have to jump to the end of this document. + +This tutorial describes libssh version 0.5.0. This version is the development +version and is *not* published yet. However, the examples should work with +little changes on versions like 0.4.2 and later. + + +Table of contents: + +@subpage guided_tour + +@subpage authentication + +@subpage shell + +@subpage commands + +@subpage sftp + +@subpage tbd + + |
