Hi Marshall,
I was able to get SCP working between Linux and Windows using OpenSSH.
I followed the following steps for this:
1. Start the SSH Server service on Windows.
2. Create the RSA/DSA key on the client machine (i.e Linix box).
3. Copy the RSA/DSA key from the Linux box to the Windows box. You could either use SCP to achieve this or mount the Windows folder on the Linux machine.
4. Create the authorized_keys and authorized_keys2 file under the .ssh folder on the Windows machine. Copy the contents of id_rsa.pub to the authorized_keys file and id_dsa.pub to the authorized_keys2 file.


Also ensure that in the sshd_config file, you have the value of StrictModes set to "No"

Thanks,
Rashmi.

I am trying to get an unattended SFTP session between a windows box and a
Linux box.  The windows machine is running SSH V3.2.0 build 267 and the
Linux machine is running openssh-3.1p1-14.  I have created the public keys
but I am still getting prompted for password.  I have accomplished this in
the past going from Linux - Linux, but this is the first time I have tried
it from Windows - Linux. Any insights appreciated.

Regards, Marshall
