I have a key pair that I created using PuTTY keygen, and I need these keys to access a site that I have been using other sFTP programs with.  How can I import these keys into WS_FTP Pro?  It is a real pain to generate new keys in WS_FTP and to get the server that I access to change the SSH Keys.  (Corporate Red Tape)

You can try the ssh key import wizard in WS_FTP Pro.

I have looked high and low for something to do that.  Can you point me in a direction?  Where is the ssh key import wizard?

I guess you cannot import SSH keys into WS_FTP. The only thing that I see that can be imported, are PGP keys.

What was requested was how to import an putty ssh key, but you replied with the options to import what is called SSL certificate which is not the same.

I would still like to know how to import either a putty key (.ppk) or OpenSSH key pairs.

I have the same problem. Help saye there is an ssh key import wizard for both public and priv ate keys. But Help does not say how to access this wizard.

I cannot generate new keys. I MUST use the keys I have because they have been distributed to computers across the country.

The Security manual says that keys can be inported, but does not say how.

When you look at the SSH for importing, there is only an option to Export.  This would be a great feature if we could import SSH keys from other apps.

Importing keys is a requirement, not an option. WS-FTP cannot assume that it generates the keys! Why hasn't someone from Ipswitch repliad to this topic?
