Did you export your putty key to the openssh format ? Did you make your key with a passphrase ?

Search "putty generate key" and you will find some site like : http://kb.siteground.com/article/How_to_generate_an_SSH_key_on_Windows_using_PuTTY.html. And generate a key in the supported format by your server. Yes, I had tired this, I have just tried another time, but in jenkins job console, I have this error : JSchException: invalid privatekey I think that this method is to generate a key on a server, and I think that in Jenkins, I have to indicate a key relative to the server I have to connect to, no ? Thanks, Xavier
