I'm trying to get sftp private key authentication to work with sftp with no
luck. I have a route similar to the following:
from("file:datadir").to("sftp://u...@localhost
/datadir?password=password&privateKeyFile=user.key");
The sftp server is Serv-U. I generate key pairs using Serv-U. The public key
is used by Serv-U while camel-ftp is configured with the private key. Camel
manages to connect to Serv-U but never to log in. The key type is DSA and
the key length is 1024. The private key looks lilke this:
-----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY-----

-----END DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Is this a format that camel-ftp recognises? Can anyone suggest how to create
a key pair that camel-ftp will recognise. I can then try to see if Serv-U
also supports that?
To verify that Serv-U works, I tried connecting with Filezilla client. It
converted the private key to Putty format but then it worked.
Could it have anything to do with US export limitations? Is the key to long?
