SFTP: DSA key valid?

I’m trying to set up an SFTP link to a server. I’m trying to use my “default” keypair, but this is a DSA key. I can’t seem to connect, so I’m asking, are DSA keys valid, or should it really be RSA keys?

Hi. Thanks for reaching out.

I took a look and it looks like only RSA is supported at this time. I have asked that DSA (DSS), as well as ECDSA be included as a feature request.

Thank you for your reply and opening a feature request for this! For now I just generated a new RSA key-pair and this works perfectly fine with odrive and sftp.
