By default, only RSA authentication is allowed. RSA authentication is dependent of the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys which should contain all allowed public keys with which you or others want to login. On the remote machine from which you login you need the private key. When, for some reason, the RSA authentication fails, sshd looks if password authentication is allowed. If not, you get the "permission denied" message and it's ok! Corinna -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Send a message to cygwin-unsubscribe@sourceware.cygnus.com
