failed to send channel request

hi.

I am trying to connect to my server via SFTP. I have a OpenSSH Key (SSH-2 RSA) 1024 bits.

When I try to connect I am getting the message "failed to send channel request".

Any idea why this may be?

Thanks

Does it work with regular login/password?

If I just fill in the username and password on the general tab, and leave the key file and password blank under the advanced tab (is that what you mean?) I get "Auth Fail". I think that's because my server is set up for key file authentication.

I can successfully login and browse using WinSCP on a remote PC, and can login using putty on a remote PC and Connectbot on my Android phone using the same key file.

Thanks
