I'm working on a project that is using goftp to upload to a server, but (thanks to the kind people here) I will use a more secure method.
I plan to use ssh instead and found this ssh client in golang found here.
I have setup an ssh server (freeSSHd) and can successfully connect through PuTTY both locally and on another machine.
I have only changed this part of the client to replace the variables with my own
var (
server = "127.0.0.1:22"
username = "username"
password = clientPassword("password")
)
When I execute the ssh client, ssh.Dial returns an error, and the panic displays this: "Failed to dial: handshake failed: ssh: no common algorithms"
client, err := ssh.Dial("tcp", "127.0.0.1:22", config)
if err != nil {
panic("Failed to dial: " + err.Error())
}
I am new to golang so I would appreciate any help to point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.
