Our client wants to setup an SFTP transfer under the standard SSH port 22 utilizing a username with passwordless login. Enabling the passwordless login means the host and client would have to exchange keys. Does your software do this and how? |

This is called public key authentication and the server software supports this. You will need to point to the public key in the "Pub Key Auth (SSH)" box under the account settings.

For public key authentication, the connecting client has to generate the key pair and send the public key to the server administrator who will then install it in the server for the user's account

What format should the pub keys be in, OpenSSH or SSH2?
Does the software support multiple pub keys on a single account, or is it one key per account? Is an "authorized_keys" file required, of does the server keep track of keys itself? |

The public keys need to be in openssh format.
You will only be able to load only one private key at a time when using the script to connect to a sftp server. Is there a reason you need to use more than one private key to connect to a server? ------------------------------------------------ File Transfer Protocol Software |
