That combination is supported, and it works for me:

Y:\t\Net-SFTP-Foreign-1.69>type Y:\g\perl\p5-Net-SFTP-Foreign\samples\key_path.pl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::SFTP::Foreign;

print "This is Net::SFTP::Foreign $Net::SFTP::Foreign::VERSION running on perl $^V on $^O\n";
my $sftp = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new('10.0.2.2',
                                   key_path => 'Y:/.ssh/id_dsa_plink.ppk',
                                   port => 22,
                                   user => 'salva',
                                   ssh_cmd => 'C:/Archivos de Programa/PuTTY/plink.exe');

$sftp->error and die $sftp->error;
my @g = $sftp->glob('/etc/pass*', names_only => 1);
print "$_\n" for @g;


Y:\t\Net-SFTP-Foreign-1.69>perl -Ilib Y:\g\perl\p5-Net-SFTP-Foreign\samples\key_path.pl
This is Net::SFTP::Foreign 1.69 running on perl v5.12.3 on MSWin32

Are you sure you don't have another version of Net::SFTP::Foreign installed that is being picked by perl instead of 1.69?

Otherwise, try the latest development version of the module (1.70_06), add the following line to the beginning of your script:

   $Net::SFTP::Foreign::debug = ~0;

Rerun it and send me the output. Include also its full, unmodified source code.
