If you are using WINSCP I'm pretty sure it likes it's keys in PPK
(Putty) format, so you would use PuttyGEN to create your key. It can go
in any folder you would like. It is either set up in the gui, or passed
in on the command line.

Subject: PC document / folder key location for SFTP/SSH to i5, PC is
client,i5 is
server

Looking for the PC document / folder location for SFTP/SSH to i5, PC
is client,
i5 is server?
I've updated my FTP to SFTP, working using WINSCP.

I'd now like to update to using a hostkey, eliminate the password.

I've done many setups where the i5 is the SFTP/SSH client.
Few, if any, when the i5 is the server.

I have the below doc for the i5 side.
Configuring the System i SSHD Server to Use Public-Key Authentication
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1012709

I'm missing the PC document.
1) What tool on the PC, WIN7, is used to generate the private/public
keys.
2) What is the PC folder key location?
3) Is there any other setup needed on the PC?

Thank You
