Hi Mike, Nick,

thank you very much for your help! I've got it working now.

The hint to the docs is embarrassing. I've read the docs several times, but still missed that fact. Naturally I wanted to configure the path and thought a lot about file ownership and permissions. So, thank you for pointing me on this.

And Nick saved me from running into the next issue.

Cheers, Volker

    I've created a key pair by ssh-keygen. I've put it in /etc/guacamole and

          <param name="sftp-private-key">/etc/guacamole/id_volker</param>

 From the documentation for "sftp-private-key" (emphasis added):

"*The entire contents of the private key to use for public key authentication.* ... The private key must be in OpenSSH format, as would be generated by the OpenSSH ssh-keygen utility."

This needs to be the actual contents of the key, not a filesystem path.
