I am trying to get sftp (iftp) to work with an sftp server that has my public key installed. I stored my private key in the windows openssh key store. I can successfully connect to the server using ssh from the command line, and can connect to the sftp server on the same machine with winscp with my private key installed. I can use IFTP to connect with a username and password, but I want to avoid doing that for obvious reasons.
Does IFTP command support the installation of private keys or using the windows openssh keystore? Can this be added in the future? I am confused by the IFTP /K option that allows one to specify a public key - usually the client needs the private key to authenticate against the public key stored on the server.
