I recommend using DSA, but that's my choice. On the client: ssh-keygen -t dsa I'd just hit <ENTER> at each question. This should generate a "~/.ssh" directory and create two keys in it: id_dsa and id_dsa.pub. Log into the server machine and go to the user's .ssh directory. Edit the "authorized_keys" file and put the contents of the CLIENT'S "id_dsa.pub" in there. Then log out. Try to log back into the server machine and it should let you in without a password. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Give me ambiguity or give me something else! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
