| + | | ''%%-hostkey aa:bb:cc:...%%'' | Specify the expected hostkey using ''[[scriptcommand_open#hostkey|-hostkey]]'' switch in an ''[[scriptcommand_open|open]]'' command in the script. With WinSCP, you should include key type and size in the signature. While they are not required, it is still recommended to add them as otherwise WinSCP may choose to use a different (better) host key algorithm and the checksum will not match (the same is actually true for PSFTP). \\ Example: ''%%open sftp://user@example.com/ -hostkey="ssh-rsa 2048 aa:bb:cc:...%%"'' \\ (assuming 2048-bit RSA host key) \\ See also [[#hostkey|Verifying the host key]] section below. | | ||
