PSCP file from Windows to Linux using private/public keys
<p>I can transfer file using PSCP:</p>

<pre><code>C:\&gt;pscp -pw &lt;password&gt; -r -p &lt;path of the file&gt;  user@Server:&lt;path file to stored&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>But not using the public/private key.</p>

<p>Steps followed:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Generate public and private keys using PuTTYgen.</p></li>
<li><p>Copy the public key to authorized_keys of Remote Server</p></li>
<li><p>Save the private key to key.ppk in Windows server</p></li>
<li><p>Then </p>

<pre><code>C:\&gt;pscp -i privatekey pathofthefile user@server:pathfiletostored
</code></pre></li>
</ol>

<p>It gives "Fatal: Network error: Connection refused"</p>

<p>Can someone please help?</p>
