How would one setup a key authentication sftp setup?
I have sshd installed and setup and it works with a username and password login.
I tried following online tutorials but they fail. one shown to use ssh-keygen -t ed25519
and I used the public key on server and the private on the client side.
I would like to know how would one do this correctly?
I tried the above and it failed. I use windows machines to connect to freebsd.
So, I used filezilla to connect from a windows machine but when I tried it said
that filezilla doesn't support the format and then demanded to convert it to .ppk
file. I did. I would like to know how get it to work with filezilla.
