thank you very much for your quick reply, Josef. I have no idea, how
PuTTY could know which key to store, if I leave the "Private key
file for authentication:" filed blank. Nevertheless, I tested it with
the somehow expected error message of PuTTY:

"PuTTY Fatal Error: Disconnected: No supported authentication methodes
available (server sent publickey)"

Just to make it clear: I do not have any SmartCard. Did you ever try
it without OpenPGP card? Do you have any further ideas?

Regards,
Peter
