AW: [geclipse-dev] new plug-ins (eu.geclipse.efs.sftp andeu.geclipse.ssh)
|
Hi Christoph,
Just had a look at these two plug-ins and it seems they do not have any dependencies that prevent us from putting them into SVN. So I suggest we move them to SVN as soon as possible. Ariel, Markus, any objections?
Cheers, Mathias

Betreff: [geclipse-dev] new plug-ins (eu.geclipse.efs.sftp andeu.geclipse.ssh)
Hi!
There are two new plug-ins (eu.geclipse.efs.sftp and eu.geclipse.ssh) in
our cvs. As the name suggests, they add support for sftp filesystem
connections. A new connection can be established using the "Grid
Connections" Wizard, but before it is necessary to take care of
authentication.
There are three ways to authenticate to a remote host.
1)
Adding the password to the "User Info" field (username:password) in the
connection dialog. Thereby the fingerprint of the remote machine must
already reside in the known hosts ("Preferences -> General -> Network
Connections -> SSH2 -> Known Hosts"). Unwise because when using
g-Eclipse connections, the password will be saved in plaintext!
2)
Creating a private/public key-pair and adding the public key to the
remote authorized_keys file. Can be done via "Preferences -> General ->
Network Connections -> SSH2 -> Key Management". Only keys without
passphrase are supported for now.
3)
Creating a SSH Token via the "Authentication Tokens" view. Takes care of
adding the fingerprint to the known hosts. Password is stored using
org.eclipse.core.runtime.Platform.addAuthorizationInfo which is
persistent, therefore it is necessary to delete the token when it is not
needed anymore. The password store will be changed to
org.eclipse.equinox.security.storage when we switch to ganymede.
Regards,
Christof
