On the server there is only need for the authorized_keys file. It has to contain your public key (from identity.pub). In WinSCP you need your *private* key (from identity). Don't keep your private key on the server! Of course you may work without keys too - password authentication with ssh is still much better than telnet :) > okay to do?
