      Hi Guys,

      Anyone know how and if it's possible to change the Public Key on WG, there only seems to be a generate option, but we have a public key used from another server which we are trying to migrate over to and need to manually set the public key....Is there a config file this can be changed in?

      Thanks for the help.

        @seanbts You can enter a private key to reuse a key. If you only have the public key, you can't reuse it as a private key cannot be derived from a public key.
