[EMAIL PROTECTED] I searched the archives and dug threw about 20 pages last night comming across many posts from you about SSH :) I tryed a lot of things but never saw what you just pasted.
Thanks a ton! It works great and helps me automate it all now!! Like my last comment CYGWIN has allowed me to do everything I do on Linux [automated stuff] easily on Windows, adding users automatically is EASY! Just like on Linux :) Im very happy with it and can't wait to get it running on a few HUNDRED windows servers :) Thanks again. > On Oct 11 23:46, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> I am attempting to use RSA keys to connect to a user, from a remote >> box. >> >> RSA keys are created on my main machine instead of the cygwin machine. >> Normally I copy them over and change permissions, authorized_keys, >> auth against the .pub and it works. >> >> If I copy my authorized_keys file over and change permissions it fails >> to auth with the .pub. > > WFM.
