Hi, I am working with two Unix servers running AIX 5.2. One server is running "OpenSSH_3.6.1p2-CERT-patched, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x009060df" while the other is running "SSH Secure Shell 3.2.0". I created the key pair on the server with OpenSSH using "ssh-keygen". I named the output files as (identity & identity.pub). Then I copied the contents of "identity.pub" to the file named authorized_keys on the server with "SSH Secure Shell 3.2.0". When I try connecting to the remote server, I am asked to type in the password. Apparently the public key authentication method is not working. Can someone shed some light for me? Thanks. Peter
