.SH NAME
|
|
libssh2_userauth_keyboard_interactive_ex - authenticate a session using
|
|
keyboard-interactive authentication
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
#include <libssh2.h>
|
|
|
|
int
|
|
libssh2_userauth_keyboard_interactive_ex(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session,
|
|
const char *username,
|
|
unsigned int username_len,
|
|
LIBSSH2_USERAUTH_KBDINT_RESPONSE_FUNC(*response_callback));
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fIsession\fP - Session instance as returned by
|
|
\fIlibssh2_session_init_ex(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
\fIusername\fP - Name of user to attempt keyboard-interactive authentication
|
|
for.
|
|
|
|
\fIusername_len\fP - Length of username parameter.
|
|
|
|
\fIresponse_callback\fP - As authentication proceeds, the host issues several
|
|
(1 or more) challenges and requires responses. This callback will be called at
|
|
this moment. The callback is responsible to obtain responses for the
|
|
challenges, fill the provided data structure and then return
|
|
control. Responses will be sent to the host. String values will be free(3)ed
|
|
by the library. The callback prototype must match this:
|
|
|
|
.nf
|
|
void response(const char *name,
|
|
int name_len, const char *instruction,
|
|
int instruction_len,
|
|
int num_prompts,
|
|
const LIBSSH2_USERAUTH_KBDINT_PROMPT *prompts,
|
|
LIBSSH2_USERAUTH_KBDINT_RESPONSE *responses,
|
|
void **abstract);
|
|
.fi
|
|
|
|
Attempts keyboard-interactive (challenge/response) authentication.
|
|
|
|
Note that many SSH servers will always issue a single "password" challenge,
|
|
requesting actual password as response, but it is not required by the
|
|
protocol, and various authentication schemes, such as smartcard authentication
|
|
may use keyboard-interactive authentication type too.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
Return 0 on success or negative on failure. It returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN
|
|
when it would otherwise block. While LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative
|
|
number, it isn't really a failure per se.
|
|
.SH ERRORS
|
|
\fILIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC\fP - An internal memory allocation call failed.
|
|
|
|
\fILIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND\fP - Unable to send data on socket.
|
|
|
|
\fLIBSSH2_ERROR_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED\fP - failed, invalid username/password
|
|
or public/private key.
