Hi there, Hmmm, maybe it's a permission problem. Funny thing still is that I think it's going wrong at the host somewhere. Are the permissions right? At the client I have this: -rw------- 1 username username 6431 Mar 2 10:00 id_rsa -rw-r--r-- 1 username username 1436 Mar 2 10:00 id_rsa.pub At the host I have this: -rw-r--r-- 1 username username 1436 Mar 2 13:50 authorized_keys2 Is it there the same situation?
