How do you use Filezilla with SFTP but without it looking at Putty's configuration for authorized_keys by default?

Am I being stupid?
 
Hello,

As for FileZilla you should refer your question to their support. Some time before I've asked the same on FileZilla's forums, and they do not seem to be going to provide a fix for it.

For now if you don't use RSA keys for sFTP (if you run sFTP support with a help of ProFTPd), you should disable publickey from auth method in /etc/proftpd.sftp.conf and take care to copy it under custombuild/custom/proftpd/conf/ folder.

Check http://www.proftpd.org/docs/contrib/mod_sftp.html for more details.
