Connection error in bitvise ssh client

Iam able to connect to ssh server host on openshift using putty but while using the same setting in bitvise ssh client i get the folowing error -

01:47:18.424 Connecton failed. getaddrinfo() failed. Windows error 11003: A
non-recoverable error occurred during a database lookup. 01:47:18.424 The SSH2 session has been terminated.

I have added the public key in it keypair section. is there a way to connect to ssh servers on port 22 using bitvise.


Solution 1:

This can be done by following these instructions:

  • generate your ssh keys
  • add key to openshift, if not done already
  • import the key into the user keypair manager (private key)
  • import the key into the host key manager (public key)
    • for host, grab the remote access url and remove the ssh. *everything is needed except the ssh for the url and save
    • add everything after the @ to the host back on the main application and everything before the @ to the username field
    • select the slot for the key you imported and enter the passphrase
    • when / if you get prompted to accept a cert, accept it

you should now be connected with ssh and sftp!
