I am trying to use Paramiko to make an SSH communication between 2 servers on a private network. The client server is a web server and the host server is going to be a "worker" server. The idea was to not open up the worker server to HTTP connections. The only communication that needs to happen, is the web server needs to pass strings to a script on the worker server. For this I was hoping to use Paramiko and pass the information to the script via SSH.
I set up a new user and created a test script in Python 3, which works when I run it from the command line from my own user's SSH session. I put the same code into my Django web app, thinking that it should work, since it tests OK from the command line, and I get the following error:
Server 'worker-server' not found in known_hosts
Now, I think I understand this error. When performing the test script, I was using a certain user to access the server, and the known hosts information is saved to ~/.ssh/known_hosts
even though the user is actually a 3rd party user created just for this one job. So the Django app is running under a different user who doesn't find the saved known hosts info because it doesn't have access to that folder. As far as I can tell the user which Apache uses to execute the Django scripts doesn't have a home directory.
Is there a way I can add this known host in a way that the Django process can see it?
Script:
import paramiko
client = paramiko.SSHClient()
client.load_system_host_keys()
client.connect('worker-server', 22, 'workeruser', 'workerpass')
code = "123wfdv"
survey_id = 111
stdin, stdout, stderr =
client.exec_command('python3 /path/to/test_script/test.py %s %s' % ( code, survey_id ))
print( "ssh succuessful. Closing connection" )
stdout = stdout.readlines()
client.close()
print ( "Connection closed" )
output = ""
for line in stdout:
output = output + line
if output!="":
print ( output )
else:
print ( "There was no output for this command" )
