Hi,

I try to connect to MacOS using SSH. I tried all the suggestions form the previous thread about SSH but whatever I did I got error 114

Is it any step=by-step instruction how to do this?

&nbsp;

My OSX is 10.8.2 and I sue recent FinalBuilder

&nbsp;

Regards

Tomek

I don’t have access to mac with that version for testing. Please try this build :   
  
 [http://downloads.finalbuilder.com/downloads/finalbuilder/700/FB700\_2037.exe](http://downloads.finalbuilder.com/downloads/finalbuilder/700/FB700_2037.exe)   
  
 On the SSH Open action, turn on Verbose logging and post the log output so we can see what is going on. I assume you have generated a key pair on your mac using something like this :   
  
 sudo ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh\_host\_rsa\_key   
 sudo ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /etc/ssh\_host\_dsa\_key   
  
 Are you able to connect/authenticate using another SSH client like Putty?

What authentication methods are allowed on your SSH server. FinalBuilder only supports password or public key. If the privatekeyfile property is set then it will use private key, otherwise it will use password authentication. With putty, my guess is it’s using keyboard-interactive authentication. You will need to configure the SSH server to allow password authentication.

Finnaly I sorted it out. A short instsruction how to do this:

1. On Mac run terminal
2. call "sudo nano /etc/sshd\_config"
3. uncomment "#PasswordAuthentication no"" (which suggest that is on by default)
4. change it to "PasswordAuthentication yes"
5. save file
6. remember to enable System Preferences-\>Sharing-\>Remote Loging

Thanks for your help
