Authentication method issue

[kapilgurnani]

I am getting Authentication method none everytime.
I test server by filezilla on linux

I am getting below value on ctx parameter

domain:null
method:"none"
service:"ssh-connection"
user:"abc"
username:"abc"

Assuming you mean you're writing a server with ssh2, that's entirely possible for the client to request the 'none' authentication method. That just means it's requesting access without providing any credentials. It's sometimes used by clients to determine what methods are actually usable. You can pass such a list of methods as an array to ctx.reject().

I am taking the credentials from filezilla so what can be the solution for this?

[mscdex]

It's entirely up to you how you want to handle a 'none' request. You can accept it, which means the user is allowed in without a password/key/etc. or you can reject it with a list of valid authentication methods like I mentioned.

I tried by sending password from filezilla but didn't get any password in ctx.

I were getting this parameters on ctx -
domain:null
method:"none"
service:"ssh-connection"
user:"abc"
username:"abc"

I have the same probelm as @kapilgurnani . I try to connect to the FTP Server with filezilla providing username and password within filezilla. but the SFTP Server responds with none as authentication type. Do you know how to avoid this @mscdex ?

[mscdex]

I don't have any suggestions other than the ones I've already given @xMarkusSpringerx.

The following code snippet might be useful if you only want to allow login through passwords.
Filezilla will still try to login via 'none' one time but then sends another request using the password.

if (authContext.method !== 'password') {
  return authContext.reject(['password'])
}

I felt this needed to be documented since I spent >1 hour trying to figure it out to finally find this issue buried in the issues list. #993
