Hi,

Problem is that FileZilla server doesn't probably support certificate or private key authentication. So you cannot use it there.

You can use only password authentication.

Server certificate you are mentioning is something else. When you want to create some server that uses FTPS protocol (FTP+SSL). Some certificate should be loaded on server side in order to start that server.

When client connect to that server. Server sends certificate to client so client can be sure that this is real server where he want to connect.

Certificate authentication is something else. In Certificate authentication client uses own certificate and private key on client side and uses that certificate when he try to connect to server. Server has that certificate and check if same certificate is used.

If same certificate is used it allow client to connect to server. Unfortunately this is not (probably) supported by Filezilla server.

More help about authentication types you can find in Authentication Property:
