tscp connection to connect to EC2 server

[BA621858188]

Hi All,

I need to use the tscp connection component to connect to an EC2 server as per the project architecture. I already went through the pages of the Talend portal to learn about this component. I wanted to know more details on the authentication method as a public key option.

1. What is the private key? And do we need to key in on a particular path on the EC2 server?

2. Passphrase: Our Arch team does not want us to use a passphrase. Is it mandatory to have this?

Please help. Thanks.

Hello @Vrushabh Malbari​ ,

1. The private key is generated by the ssh-keygen command like #ssh-keygen -t rsa -N '' -f .ssh/id_rsa -b 2048, after you run the command on the EC2 server, it will generate id_rsa and id_rsa.pub file under .ssh folder , you need to download the private key file id_rsa to the studio machine, then setup the file path in for 'Private key' in tSCPxxx component like the below
2. Passphrase is not necessary if you don't setup passphrase while running the ssh-keygen command

Thank you for reply.

1.Where we need to place or deploy the key on EC2?

2.Talend job server is different that EC2 so do I need to deploy the key on Talend job server as well?

@Vrushabh Malbari​ ,

1. you can put the private key on the local studio computer
2. if your job is running on the talend job server, you can put the private key file on the job server machine.
