Hi all, i running a openssh server version 2.9p2. I generated a keypair with puttygen and put the public key on my server. Now i want to use winscp2 for file transfer, but the Problem is, that winscp2 not accepted the key passphrase. With putty i can conntect to my server. Here a part from the winscp2 log: Initialised triple-DES client->server encryption . Initialised triple-DES server->client encryption ! Access denied . Authentication refused ! Access denied . Authentication refused ! Access denied . Authentication refused ! Access denied . Authentication refused ! Access denied . Authentication refused ! Access denied . Authentication refused ! Access denied . Authentication refused ! Access denied . Authentication refused * (ESshFatal) Not connected! Can anybody help me?
