Cannot parse privateKey: Unsupported key format

[christoshrousis]

Just wanted to confirm whether .ppk putty keys are not supported in windows, or if I'm doing something wrong.

Cheers.

@christoshrousis if it's using the ssh2 library (I think it is) you'll want to export your putty key to OpenSSH format.

Thanks @davedash - I converted my Puttykey to a OpenSSH key using puttyGen... Except now I am receiving the same error as issue #49

To anyone else who reads this that is on windows, I also had to set a timeout value in gulp sftp.

@christoshrousis nothing yet?

@williansmartins No Sorry, I ended up ditching this and using sublime SFTP plugin instead which support putty straight up as well.

PR's #23 and #48 might be related, so If I was you I would download the codebase, add the pull requests directly into you copy and see if it fixes your problems.
