Hi, Search "putty generate key" and you will find some site like : http://kb.siteground.com/article/How_to_generate_an_SSH_key_on_Windows_using_PuTTY.html.
And generate a key in the supported format by your server. br, Vincent ________________________________ From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] on behalf of Xavier NOPRE [xno...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2012 11:53 AM To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: CVS and extssh Hi all, Thanks for your replies and sorry for my delay to answer ... I have tried your solutions. I have installed Putty and defined a CVS_RSH env variable with the path "c:\Program Files\PuTTY\plink.exe". No success ... But today, I saw that Jenkins proposed me to install CVS plug-in. I do it. Now, the configuration is not the same, I can see a field "Private Key Location" with value "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User/.ssh/id_rsa", etc ... And now, in the job console, the error is : ERROR: CVS Authentication failed: null org.netbeans.lib.cvsclient.connection.AuthenticationException<http://stacktrace.jenkins-ci.org/search?query=org.netbeans.lib.cvsclient.connection.AuthenticationException>: SSH connection failed. ... Caused by: com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\.ssh\id_rsa (Le fichier spécifié est introuvable) How can I generate this key ? Thansk, Xavier 2012/5/3 Jan Seidel <wakkal...@gmail.com<mailto:wakkal...@gmail.com>> I agree on that. go to manage jenkins and create a new global property. name: CVS_RSH value: c:\"program files"\PuTTY\plink_h.bat (Depends on the agent you are using. with pageant you will have to enter the path and filename of plink_h.bat) Take care Am Mittwoch, 2.
