Hi Anton,

Komodo does not yet provide the facilities to specify a particular
private key file:
http://bugs.activestate.com/show_bug.cgi?id=67948

Komodo does support private key files, but only through an external SSH
agent. On Linux and Mac OS X you can use the openssh agent to do this.
Depending upon your OS, you may need to setup the agent and then run
Komodo from the same terminal/shell in order to keep the environment
variables:
$ ssh-agent
$ ssh-add /path/to/keyfile

On Windows you can use Putty's Pageant application to add private key files.

Cheers,
Todd
