I want a easy way to save, copy and edit files on a remote server. I’m using Eclipse as an IDE, what could be better for these tasks than RSE(Remote System Exlporer) plugin for Eclipse. The thing is that I dont know how to make a connection using a public key. I have file that I downloaded from my Amazon account, *.pem. But I don’t see any forms or inputs for this, when I try to connect to my remote Linux server. It is just User-id and password. I also tried to open the public key using the system’s text editor and copy everything to my password field, but it didn’t worked. Pls help me

this was baking my noodle for a while too. you put the keys in a folder not in the RSE config but in the whole of eclipse
