I am trying to follow the instructions here for OSX

http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Howto

I can successfully ssh to the target server with no username/password (OSX picks up my certificates from the ~/.ssh directory), but I have no idea how to get Filezilla to do the same.

I have tried just running ssh-agent which doesn't do much.

By "FTP over SSH", did you mean SFTP, or real old FTP tunnelled over SSH? – grawity May 8 '11 at 23:23
Did you follow the Windows part of the tutorial, or the single sentence relating to other platforms? – Daniel Beck May 9 '11 at 4:59
@Daniel Beck, "other platforms"... @grawity, I mean SFTP, not FTP tunnelled over SSH. – Yar May 9 '11 at 12:59
Do you get any output in the Terminal when you type printenv SSH_AUTH_SOCK? – William Jackson May 9 '11 at 13:32

You can now use FileZilla -> Preferences -> Connection -> SFTP which will allow you to import your private key.

You have to put your server first in the server manager. Provide the IP/domain and username, and ensure the login type is set to "normal" then press login.

If you have a working SSH connection to this IP everything will be fine!
