I'm trying to understand how WS_FTP handles SFTP. Here's my situation: We're connecting to a vendor, they mandate SFTP on an odd port. I have all the firewall pieces taken care of, and we can connect, but apparently the SSH keypair authentication isn't working. The vendor has provided me two Public SSH keys, and RSA and a DSA. I can't find anywhere in WS_FTP 2007 Pro to import these keys, though when I set up the SFTP conneciton, and connect for the first time, it pops up a screen about an "Untrusted SSH Server Key". I chose to "trust this key", then there is an entry that appears in Tools > Options > SSH > Trusted Hosts. So, can anyone tell me if the "Trusted Host" the same as importing the vendor's public key? If it is, then why am I getting the error "Failed SSH User Authentication" when trying to connect? I feel like I'm missing something. I've used other applications that allow you to import a public key to use, then select that key for a specific site.
