(S)FTP Preferences (Deprecated)
To configure the (S)FTP options, open the Preferences dialog box and go to . You can customize the following options:
- Encoding for FTP control connection
- The encoding used to communicate with FTP servers: either ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8. If the server supports the UTF-8 encoding, Oxygen XML Editor will use it for communication. Otherwise, it will use ISO-8859-1. This section also includes a Show hidden files toggle option.
- Public known hosts file
- Specifies the file that contains the list of all SSH server host keys that you have
determined are accurate. The default value is
${homeDir}/.ssh/known_hosts
. - Private key file
- The path to the file that contains the private key used for the private key method of authentication of the secure FTP (SFTP) protocol. Only RSA private keys in PEM (Base64) and PPK (PuTTY) formats are supported. Other keys (such as OpenSSH) are not supported. The user / password method of authentication has precedence if it is used in the Open URL dialog box.
- Passphrase
- The passphrase used for the private key method of authentication of the secure FTP (SFTP) protocol. The user / password method of authentication has precedence if it is used in the Open URL dialog box.
