Convert OpenSSH key to PPK

Download PuTTY Package for your system and install.
Open puttygen.exe from PuTTY installation directory.
Click File > Load private key.
Change type of browsed file in bottom right from PuTTY Private Key Files (*.ppk) to All Files (*.*) and select your private id_rsa key file.

OpenSSH SSH-2 private key (old PEM format)).
To use this key with PuTTY, you need to
use the "Save private key" command to
save it in PuTTY's own format.

Click Save private key.
Save as .ppk preferably in same directory as your OpenSSH key.

SSH Tunnel

Open PuTTY.
Expand SSH list on left panel.
In left panel expand Connection > SSH and click Auth.
Click Browse.
Select your converted .ppk private key. If you cant see Browse in Auth, expand it and click Credentials. Its first field Browse.
In SSH click Tunnels.
Set Source Port to `server_port`.
Set Destination to `127.0.0.1:5432`.
Click Add.
In left panel click Session.
Set Host Name (or IP address) to `server_ip`.
Set Port to 22.
In Saved Sessions field type in configuration name to store settings. For example RenewalSSH.
Click Save.

Alternatively if you don't plan to use PuTTY for anything else:

Click Default Settings.
Click Save.

After configuration is done use Open to start SSH session. When asked to "Login as", type in your given username, then passphrase. If you see -bash in last line then it works. If Tunnel is working you can proceed to Chakrator Save Manager Setup.

Terminal SSH

Open Terminal application on your system (refer to your platform).
Connect by typing ssh -L server_port:localhost:5432 username@server_ip where username is your account name.
If you set passphrase to your key, enter passphrase.
