Make sure you are using openssh on both ends. In fact, try logging into localhost first. Don't bother with the agents yet. Just try to get ssh to ask you for the passphrase for your key and not your password. You should also run ssh with the -v flag for more information. And copy id_dsa.pub to authorized_keys. Finally, your permissions should look more or less like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] paulsack]$ ls -l .ssh total 24 -rw-r--r-- 1 paulsack paulsack 608 Jun 19 16:47 authorized_keys -rw------- 1 paulsack paulsack 668 May 27 14:41 id_dsa -rw-r--r-- 1 paulsack paulsack 608 May 27 14:41 id_dsa.pub -rw-r--r-- 1 paulsack paulsack 11089 Jun 19 15:36 known_hosts [EMAIL PROTECTED] paulsack]$ ls -ld .ssh drwx------ 2 paulsack paulsack 4096 Jun 19 16:48 .ssh -- Paul Sack | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.uiuc.edu/~paulsack Bondage maybe, discipline never! -- T.K. _______________________________________________ Siglinux mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.utacm.org/mailman/listinfo/siglinux
