A small SSH client written in C#.

You can grab a copy of SSHClient from the releases page. Alternatively, feel free to compile the solution yourself. Fody/Costura has been used to embed the SSH.NET reference.

The mandatory arguments consist of an authentication type (either Windows or Local), connection parameters and a module.

• -a - Authentication Type
  • -a Password - Use password authentication.
  • -a Key - Use key based authentication.

If the authentication type is Password, then you will need to supply the following parameters.

• -u USERNAME - SSH username
• -k PASSWORD - Password of SSH user
• -s SERVER - SSH server to connect to
• -p PORT - Port on the SSH server to connect to

If the authentication type is Key, then you will need to supply the following parameters.

• -u USERNAME - SSH username
• -k KEY - Path to the SSH key
• -s SERVER - SSH server to connect to
• -p PORT - Port on the SSH server to connect to

Standard modules are used to interact against a single MS SQL server.

• connect - Test to see if the credentials work
• command -o COMMAND - Execute an arbitrary command
• download -o PATH - Download a file to C:\\Users\\Username\\Documents\\

SSHClient.exe -a Key -s 18.191.138.12 -p 22 -u ubuntu -k c:\users\skawa\aws.key -m download -o /home/ubuntu/file.txt

[+] Downloading: /home/ubuntu/file.txt
[+] File downloaded to: C:\Users\skawa\Documents\file.txt

The below techniques are on the roadmap for future releases

• Upload files
• Perhaps add an option to customize the the downloads directory, this is currently C:\\Users\\Username\\Documents\\
• Authentication based on users session
