$sessionOptions.SshHostKeyFingerprint Question..

Hi -

If, a SSH key pair (public and private), was created on one server, then transferred the private key to a new server, would the connection still work in .NET Assembly? Both keys still work in the WinSCP Console in the new server.

1 year ago: Public and Private Keys created on SERVER1 (Server1 is winscp 4.29).

Now: Transferred Powershell scripts to SERVER2. (Server2 is winscp 5.5).

Issue: Same PPK keys are not connecting using .Net Assembly code. The keys do work using the Winscp Gui still on SERVER2.


thanks in advance...

SessionOptions.SshHostKeyFingerprint has nothing to do with .ppk files. You are mixing server's host key with your account key. From your post I have no idea which one you are talking about.

See following links to learn the difference.

Thank you Martin, will do.
