Hi guys, I am trying to setup SFTP (ssh) with ProFTP.
My /etc/proftpd/conf.d/sftpd.conf looks like this: ####################################################################### <IfModule mod_sftp.c> SFTPEngine on Port 7003 SFTPLog /var/log/proftpd/sftp.log # Configure both the RSA and DSA host keys, using the same host key # files that OpenSSH uses. SFTPHostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key SFTPHostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key SFTPAuthMethods publickey SFTPAuthorizedUserKeys file:/etc/proftpd/authorized_keys/%u SFTPCompression delayed </IfModule> ###################################################################### I added the following line in /etc/ssh/sshd_config: Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server I generated a key for each user that will use SFTP located in their /home/USER/.ssh/ directory As you can see, I have setup SFTP to listen on port 7003. My question is the following: The users that will connect to the ssh server uses FileZilla and mostly from Windows based machines. I copied the "id_rsa" key files (which was generated on Debian) to the Windows user's "My Documents" folder on Windows. I also added the (copied) "id_rsa" files to FileZilla. However, I get an "Authentication Failed" followed by a "Critical Error:Could not connect to server" from FileZilla. 1:Do I need to generate different keys on Windows or is it o.k to use the copied ones from Debian? 2:Do I have to name the copied or generated files the same as the user? 3:Where do I put the key files on Windows? (I use puTTY to normally connect to my ssh servers, which works fine) Thank You Danny -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
