(PuTTY's SSH authentication agent). You can find links to download these programs in the "Download" section. The installation package of WinSCP already includes these applications. | + | To generate a public key file, use the [[&puttygenhelp|PuTTYgen]] application.

| - | foo puttygen | + | ===== SFTP requirements ===== |
| + | For SFTP, the only requirement beyond the server requirements above is to run SFTP on the server. It is best to run it as a SSH2 subsystem. If you select SFTP-only on the login screen and the SFTP subsystem is not found, WinSCP will try to find the SFTP server in some common directories (/usr/lib/sftp-server, /usr/local/lib/sftp-server, etc.). This way, it is possible to use SFTP even with SS1, which does not support subsystems. | ||

| + | ===== SCP requirements ===== | ||
| + | To transfer files, scp1 is used (it is called from within scp). If only scp2 is allowed on your server, check the "Use scp2 with scp1 compatibility" option on the "SCP" tab in the login dialog. | ||
| + | |||
| + | For correct functionality, it is necessary to satisfy a few conditions. The BASH shell is recommended for working with WinSCP. If your default shell doesn't work with WinSCP, you can specify another shell on the "SCP" tab in the Login dialog. Typing the full path (e.g. "/bin/bash") is recommended. | ||
