New plugin available: SFTP

OK, so it's about the Android version. Apparently the keys are using the method aes256-ctr for encrypting the key, which isn't supported by the plugin. Try encrypting the private key with a different method lile aes256-cbc.

Perfect with aes256-cbc it works!
Thanks!

Great! I will check why aes256-ctr isn't supported.

You need to pass both the public key and private key to the SFTP plugin.

Oh, I've always wondered, why does the SFTP plugin need both keys (.PEM and .PUB) ? With regular SSH, as long as the public key is in the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file, I only need to supply the private file. Isn't it the "engine" for SFTP as for regular SSH? I'm probably missing some important piece of the puzzle.

Just thought I'd ask.

Yes, normally the private key should be sufficient, but the library I use seems to need both.
