I use generally a SSH FTP connexion to manage my server. It works fine from my pC with WinSCP.
I have a private key that is perfectly handeld by Winscp.
name of server
specific port
username
no password
private key chosen
even password of the key entered
With AndFTP the sameexact process always says : "invalid private Key" or "Invalid credentials"
Why is that ? What could be wrong in the procedure ?
Thanks
SFTP not fonctionningRe: SFTP not fonctionningYou need SSH key with OpenSSH format. Also, if the key is password-protected then the cipher algorithm must be among the following. Try AES-128.
3des-cbc 3des-ctr aes128-cbc aes192-cbc aes256-cbc aes128-ctr aes192-ctr aes256-ctr arcfour arcfour128 arcfour256 blowfish-cbc Re: SFTP not fonctionningThank you
My key has been generated with PuTTYgen. Type of key is SSH-2 RSA at 1024 bits. It seems to be very common and standard since it is the default setting in puTTYgen... So the problem would be that ? Your software would not be compatible with the more common possible key generator ? I can't believe it... Could you confirm this ? Re: SFTP not fonctionningEncryption support on device such as Android is limited. Try with the listed algorithm, there are supported by Putty and see if it works to make sure that's the real problem.
Re: SFTP not fonctionningI did try an openssh converted key with a server I'm having direct root access and that is ok. But I still can't connect the other server with the putty 1024 generated key. So now I regret my too quick buying... Re: SFTP not fonctionningIf you can provide a testing key, then we can investigate to understand why it fails. You can contact support(at)lysesoft(dot)com
Re: SFTP not fonctionningI also noticed problems using an RSA key in AndFTP and found one way out which might also work for you. To use the private key in AndFTP, it must be readable with openssl, e.g.:
Code: Select all
Code: Select all
