in thread Net::SFTP::Foreign is slow

Hi Rob,

I am getting an error "Invalid option 'key_path' or bad combination of options". Can you please advise. 

use Net::SFTP::Foreign 1.67;
use Net::SFTP::Foreign::Backend::Net_SSH2 0.04;

my $sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new( host => 'delivery.myserver.com',
                                    port => '22',
                                    backend => 'Net_SSH2',
                                    user => 'ftp_user',
                                    key_path => "mytransaction.private
+.key");
$sftp->die_on_error("Unable to establish SFTP connection");

    There was a bug on Net::SFTP::Foreign::Backend::Net_SSH2 0.04.

    Get the new 0.05 I have just uploaded to CPAN or just use privatekey instead of key_path: 

    my $sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new( host => 'delivery.myserver.com',
                                    port => '22',
                                    backend => 'Net_SSH2',
                                    user => 'ftp_user',
                                    privatekey => "mytransaction.priva
+te.key");

      Get the new 0.05 ...

      0.05 has now been uploaded to the sisyphusion repo.
      Of course, Net::SFTP::Foreign::Backend::Net_SSH2 (like Net::SFTP::Foreign) is pure perl, so it's quite simple to install from source once the pre-requisite Net::SSH2 has been installed ... but I'd just as soon put up the ppm package and leave it at that :-)

      Cheers,
      Rob

        Hi Rob, I have just replaced the Net_SSH2.pm file and using privatekey option and getting a new error "authentication failed: (0)". Please advise.
