Well, although something is wrong with my key file, it is not the root cause of the transfer failure. Just found that all the fuss is caused by a negligence on my side.

In testing for ftp, I used the command "./curl -v -u qxu:fair123 -T CMakeLists.txt ftp://13.198.98.202/scan/test.txt", and it works well. In testing for sftp, I still pointed the server to 13.198.98.202, and used the command "./curl -v -u qxu:fair123 -T CMakeLists.txt sftp://13.198.98.202/scan/test.txt". It doesn't work, coz 13.198.98.202 is ftp server, not sftp server. As soon as sftp server's IP address is filled in correctly, it works.

Still, there is some problem:

Even something is wrong with the public key file, the connection is successful. After all, I am using user and password authentication. But, the upload fails when I specifies the relative remote folder (13.198.98.190/scan), and the upload succeeds when I uses the absolute remote path (13.198.98.190//home/qxu/scan).

It is strange, coz when I telnet into 13.198.98.190 with my account "qxu/fair123", the default path is my home directly (/home/qxu). So a relative path (scan) should work, shouldn't it? I am also using the relative path in ftp connection to 13.198.98.202 with curl, and it is successful.

What is the possible reason behind the scenario?

Thanks,
Xu Qiang
