Secured FTP Communication
The objects contained in the
Integration Pack for FTP provide the ability to communicate with
FTP servers that support different flavors of the FTPS security
protocol as well as the SFTP protocol. When setting the security of
an FTP object to an FTPS server, the object automatically accepts
any certificates or keys that are submitted by the server. Whether
you are using unsecured or secured FTP, make sure that you are
connecting to a trusted server.
SFTP SSH Key
The Opalis Integration Pack for FTP
allows you to specify an SSH private key to use when communicating
with an SFTP server. All Integration Pack for FTP objects that are
set for SFTP communciation and have the Use Key option selected use the same
private key.
To select the SSH private
key:

Client, click the Options
menu and then click FTP.
The FTP Settings dialog
appears.

In the Private key field, type the path of the

is associated with the SSH private key file. If there is no
passphrase associated with the key file, leave this field
blank.
