Writing data

To send data via the SSH tunnel you must first obtain the System.IO.Stream associated with the tunnel. You can do this using the IpClientSsh.Stream property. Once you have obtained the Stream you can write data as you would to any other Stream.

Example

[C#]

// create login credentials

SshParameters sshParams = new SshParameters(sshHostname,sshUsername,sshPassword);

// create new SSH tunnel to specified POP3 server hostname and port

IpClientSsh ssh = new IpClientSsh(sshParams,popHostname, popPort);        

// establish connection

ssh.Connect();

// get stream from tunnel

Stream stream = ssh.Stream;

// create StreamReader to read data from tunnel

System.IO.StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream);

// read welcome message from POP3 server and write to console

string line = reader.ReadLine();

Console.WriteLine(line);

// create StreamWriter to write data to tunnel

System.IO.StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(stream);

// write username to POP3 server

writer.WriteLine("USER username");

writer.Flush();

[VB]

' create login credentials

Dim sshParams As SshParameters = New SshParameters(sshHostname, sshUsername, sshPassword)

' create new SSH tunnel to specified POP3 server hostname and port

Dim ssh As IpClientSsh = New IpClientSsh(sshParams, popHostname, popPort)

' establish connection

ssh.Connect

' get stream from tunnel

Dim stream As Stream = ssh.Stream

' create StreamReader to read data from tunnel

Dim reader As System.IO.StreamReader = New StreamReader(stream)

' read welcome message from POP3 server and write to console

Dim Line As String = reader.ReadLine

Console.WriteLine(Line)

' create StreamWriter to write data to tunnel

Dim writer As System.IO.StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(stream)

' write username to POP3 server

writer.WriteLine("USER username")

writer.Flush
