I downloaded and installed puTTY on a Windows XP box and I'm having
difficulty getting it to authenticate using the puTTY RSA keys that I
generated. I understand the puTTY documentation to say that the public
key generated by puTTY has to be put in the server, namely that login
account's .ssh/authorized_keys2 file. This is on a Red Hat 9 box with
openssh-3.5p1-6.

I get an error message "server refused our key" when I attempt to login.
I can authenticate with the account password and have a successful
session. I'd like public key authentication to work. Am I missing a
configuration step here?

You may have bungled the key, but did you
have a reason not to just use login/password?
