Hello,

I'm having problems with OpenSSH 2.1.1 on a PC running Mandrake 7.0-2 with an
ADSL connection using PPPoE. I'm only using the client to connect to a server
(Sun Solaris 2.6) runnning the same version of OpenSSH. I can connect to the
server from another Sun box using another , older version of ssh (using only
ssh1) as well as from a Win98 PC using F-Secure SSH2. In the latter case public
key authentication does not seem to work, but I get through using password
authentication.

On the Mandrake box, however, the following happens (with the sensitive info
replaced by dummy arguments, as I'm a bit paranoid ;):

$ ssh -v -l remote_user remote_ssh_server.remote_domain
SSH Version OpenSSH_2.1.1, protocol versions 1.5/2.0.
Compiled with SSL (0x0090581f).
debug: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug: Applying options for *
debug: Seeding random number generator
debug: ssh_connect: getuid 501 geteuid 0 anon 0
debug: Connecting to remote_ssh_server.remote_domain [AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD] port 22.
debug: Seeding random number generator
debug: Allocated local port 1001.
 

...and then it just sits there until I stop it with Ctrl-C. Can anyone tell me what's 
going on? The
config-files are more or less default.

Secondly, I'm confused about where OpenSSH actually want the ssh2 keys stored.
Is it under ~/.ssh2 or is it in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2? A FAQ I read says one
thing but the man-pages seem to claim something else.

Thanks for any help,

Olof
