Putty is an SSH client that’s mostly used in Windows. Linux usually has an SSH client built in.Unfortunately Putty uses its own key format which is not compatible with OpenSSH’s key format.This brief tutorial will show you how to easily convert Putty’s format (private.ppk) to OpenSSH’s format (id_rsa) and vice versa.If you have any questions: please let me know in the comments!
