Install them into a directory on the machine your Continua server is running.
Step 2.) Generate a public/private key
...
To check everything worked, log into the SSH server using plink.exe
. You'll need the SSH server's host name and the user you want the Continua server application to log in as. On your Continua server run this command:
...
plink.exe -ssh -i "path/to/privatekey/privatekey.ppk" user @ssh_server_name |
For me, this command is:
...
C:\putty\plink.exe -ssh -i "C:\private_key.ppk" vinnie @10 .0. 0.124 |
You should then see output like this:
...
Note: If you skip this step or something went wrong, Continua will not work. The next time Continua tries to run a command over SSH, it will be prompted for a password or for caching the key in the registry. Once this happens there's no way for Continua to recover. You will need to kill the plink.exe process running on the Continua server then stop the Continua server.
Step 5.) Configure subversion config to support SSH
...
You can find the subversion config file in this location: %APPDATA%\Subversion.
Enter it into the Windows Explorer
path bar or the Run
section of your start menu.
Step 6.) Verify everything worked
...
Note: If you are prompted for a password then something has gone wrong with the setting up of private/public keys.
