What private key does MobaXterm use by default, and can I change it? I read through the documentation, found nothing on what the default key that is used. I know there is the C:\Users\<me>\.ssh directory, with a public and private key pair. But its not clear what is used. Unlike ssh in Linux I cant just run ssh -vvvvv to see more output. I also tried enabling DEBUG3 in sshd to see if I could see which public key was passed but, it only shows signatures not the actual public key.

Can someone confirm which private key is used by default for MobaXterm?

    There isn't a default private key. You most certainly should be able to create a verbose SSH connection both on the client side and the server side
