"ssh-add ~/.ssh/rsync.key" did the trick. rsync now passwordless as desired. HOWEVER, i went to aldeberan: moylan ~[1021] ssh-add -l The agent has no identities. and yet rsync works passwordless there. (sigh) there is so much i do not understand, but i'm glad that there are others who do. thank you so much. ole dan j. daniel moylan 84 harvard ave brookline, ma 02446-6202 617-777-0207 (cel old ng) 857-396-9950 (cel new) [email protected] www.moylan.us [BLM] _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
