Hi,
How do I set up public key/private key authentication on OpneVMS/Alpha? I searched google, but could not find it.

Hi,
That got me much farther then where I was before. I read the appropriate sections and followed the instructions correctly I think, but the server keeps refusing my key. Does the SSH2_CONFIG file contain a line similar to the following:
AllowedAuthentications hostbased,publickey,password
I don't know much about OpenVMS logging, but there could be something that would help in the ssh server log files.

Hopefully I will remember to lookup this stuff sometiime next week, when I'll be back at work - I've been onsite at a cust. the past few days, and haven't got to read these forums, either..

I know it *can* be done, just weak on the details...

Regards to all,
