Method PreventNewSessionsAsync

Namespace

SshSharp

Assembly

SshSharp.dll

PreventNewSessionsAsync(CancellationToken)

Opens no more sessions on this connection (commands, shells, SFTP), and tells an OpenSSH server to refuse any as well, as ssh does once it knows it will not open another (OpenSSH's no-more-sessions@openssh.com): a process that later gets hold of this connection cannot quietly start a session on it, and an OpenSSH server drops the connection if one is tried anyway. Sessions already open, port forwarding and tunnels are unaffected. Like ssh, the request goes only to OpenSSH servers (some others abort on it); with others, only this client refuses.

public Task<bool> PreventNewSessionsAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

Parameters

cancellationToken CancellationToken

Returns

Task<bool>

Whether the server was told; false for servers other than OpenSSH.

Exceptions

SshException

The connection is closed or failed meanwhile.
