To use a .pem file to connect to ssh with .NET, follow these steps:

  1. First, install the SSH.NET library from the NuGet package manager using the following command:

    Install-Package SSH.NET

  2. Next, add the following namespaces to your code:

    using Renci.SshNet;
    using System.IO;
    
  3. Create a new instance of the SshClient class and specify the host, username, and port number for the SSH server:

    var privateKey = new FileInfo("path/to/pem/file.pem");
    var sshClient = new SshClient("ssh.server.com", "username", portNumber, "password", privateKey);
    
  4. Connect to the SSH server using the Connect method:

    sshClient.Connect();
    
  5. Once connected, you can execute commands on the server using the RunCommand method:

    var result = sshClient.RunCommand("ls -la");
    Console.WriteLine(result.Result);
    
  6. When you are finished, disconnect from the SSH server using the Disconnect method:

    sshClient.Disconnect();
    

That's it! You can now use a .pem file to connect to an SSH server in .NET.
