SFTP connection (General questions)

How does the component determine which public key to use, PublicKeyOpenSSH or PublicKeySSH and how do I determine which to put on the server?

Hi Watkins,

Actually, you only need Public key on server. The client component (wodFtpDLX) uses private key in order to authenticate with server.

As to which one to put on your server, both of those properties give the same public key, but in different formats. However, you should use the one your server knows how to use. Most of (linux) servers today use OpenSSH format.

Hope this helps.
