I use keychain to > manage the keys. I have probably a dozen servers which have ssh on it. Although I have passwordless authentication working on many of them, I cannot get it working on one of my main servers. I would love to get this working. In fact, I am setting up SVN over ssh and I would really love to get rid of the passwords. But there are some systems where I can just not get passwordless authentication over ssh working. This particular system is in use and I cannot, for example, arbitrarily reboot it. But short of that, I am willing to provide any troubleshooting assistence to anyone who thinks they can get to the bottom of this. Interestingly enough, between my system and this server, I can get it working in one direction (from server to my system), but not the other (from my system to server -- which is the way I really need it). Go figure. -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
