How to Convert Putty Key to SSH Key

October 22nd, 2010 No comments

I got stuck into this problem long time ago when I started working on an Ubuntu desktop. I though that I could easily connect to server using Ubuntu Terminal command-line. But I found that Linux doesn’t support a putty generated .ppk key file. I needed to convert it to OpenSSH key format, but couldn’t find out how at first. After a long and hard search I found the solution. And it was not that tuff actually :)

WinSCP Alternative for Ubuntu

I don’t use Ubuntu nowadays. I have always been a big fan of Windows. Perhaps I have always used Windows and got habituated with it, that’s why. But anyways, when I started using Ubuntu for development, I was missing WinSCP most. I needed to transfer files between my computer and web server frequently. And I hate typing long paths to use SCP command from the console.
