I can think of three possible problems (assuming the remote machine is
non-Cygwin):
- The sshd on the remote side blocks RSA authentication completely.
Look into the remote sshd_config file.
- Your Cygwin user name doesn't match your remote user name. Use
the -l option or a Host/User setting in your .ssh/config file.
- The permissions of your home directory, .ssh subdirectory and/or
subordered files are too relaxed for the remote sshd. As a
standard rule, you should make your directories and files not group
and/or world writable and your private key files not group and/or
world readable.
Hope, that helps,
Corinna
