<p>I would also suggest looking for a library that implements ssh2 in your favorite language. You now have me curious so I'll be reading the source of the Python and JavaScript libraries.</p>

Hi all,<br><br>Does anyone happen to know of a site or other document that describes in <br>detail (including the basic math) of the SSH2 PK authentication process? <br> All my searches describe the process of enabling PK authentication in <br>
the daemon and generating the keys but I'm trying to find something that <br>describes the actual exchange process that identifies a user including <br>the math that is used during the exchange (i.e. any intermediate <br>
messages being encrypted by which key, etc.)<br><br>I know there is more to the exchange than just the user's private and <br>public keys to reduce the possibility of MITM and replay attacks.<br><br>If I have to I will just dig through the openssh source but I was hoping <br>
for something a bit more condensed. I've got a crazy idea for a <br>home-built project (once I scrape together the dollars) and I want to <br>use PK authentication as part of it.<br>_______________________________________________<br>
