Is Eclipse SSH Remote System Explorer Corrupted in Windows?

I have the following setup in Windows 7 Ultimate x64:

  • Eclipse Indigo 2.7.2 (Build: M20120208-0800)
  • Remote System Explorer 3.3.2 (see screenshot)
  • (Oracle / Sun) Update Java 1.6 31 (x86)

enter image description here

Despite all my efforts, I can’t connect to the remote system (Centos 5.6 server on the local network) using the Remote System Explorer SSH connection - I tried authentication with a password and using my SSH private key.

Here is a screenshot of both the Eclipse error dialog and what is logged in my /var/log/secure file:

enter image description here

/var/log/secure :

  Apr 1 12:00:21 nagios sshd [6176]: Received disconnect from 172.16.3.88: 3: com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: Auth fail

The first time I connect, I get a request to confirm the authenticity of the remote host and the RSA key fingerprint. But as for things.

Performing the same operation with the same credentials in my Fedora Core 16 block (also working with the same version of Eclipse and Java) on the same server (and other servers) was successful.

This makes me think that RSE SSH support on Windows is either broken, or some part of the SSH-on-Windows puzzle that I miss. Is this the case?

It works on Windows 7 64bit - I use it. Maybe the problem is with 3.3.2? I checked my version and I am using 3.3.1

You must upgrade your eclipse. Indigo is out of date.
