Error VSFTPD Public Key Help

Hi all

Ive setup a VSFTPD server and im forcing SSL encryption. I have made a key and it works perfectly.

I have a client who wants to connect but is using software that needs the key to be added before he can connect.

Does he need me to send the key i created and that the VSFTPD.conf file is pointing to or is it another one that he needs?

I was under the impression that the key was private and contained information only relevant for the server.

Can someone help me...?

Additional Information : The software the client is using is MOVEit... I am not familiar with this software. Smilie

SSL_CTX_set_psk_client_callback(3SSL)				      OpenSSL				     SSL_CTX_set_psk_client_callback(3SSL)

NAME
SSL_CTX_set_psk_client_callback, SSL_set_psk_client_callback - set PSK client callback SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h> void SSL_CTX_set_psk_client_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, unsigned int (*callback)(SSL *ssl, const char *hint, char *identity, unsigned int max_identity_len, unsigned char *psk, unsigned int max_psk_len)); void SSL_set_psk_client_callback(SSL *ssl, unsigned int (*callback)(SSL *ssl, const char *hint, char *identity, unsigned int max_identity_len, unsigned char *psk, unsigned int max_psk_len)); DESCRIPTION
A client application must provide a callback function which is called when the client is sending the ClientKeyExchange message to the server. The purpose of the callback function is to select the PSK identity and the pre-shared key to use during the connection setup phase. The callback is set using functions SSL_CTX_set_psk_client_callback() or SSL_set_psk_client_callback(). The callback function is given the connection in parameter ssl, a NULL-terminated PSK identity hint sent by the server in parameter hint, a buffer identity of length max_identity_len bytes where the the resulting NULL-terminated identity is to be stored, and a buffer psk of length max_psk_len bytes where the resulting pre-shared key is to be stored. NOTES
Note that parameter hint given to the callback may be NULL. RETURN VALUES
Return values from the client callback are interpreted as follows: On success (callback found a PSK identity and a pre-shared key to use) the length (> 0) of psk in bytes is returned. Otherwise or on errors callback should return 0. In this case the connection setup fails. 1.0.0e 2006-03-10 SSL_CTX_set_psk_client_callback(3SSL)
