I wasn't able to compile a more recent version since it wouldn't find openSSL even tho it is installed (0.9.8 - I tried to pass the correct path with --with-ssl-dir but it wouldn't work). Anyways, I got ssh compiled, I copied the "ssh-keygen" binary onto our target (pc 104 geode) system from where I issued it to create a public key pair, I copied the pub part into the authorized_keys file on our server (OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005) but it wouldn't let the client in with out a password, why not??? I'm stuck, I have no idea what's going on. I can caat the authorized_keys file and it looks all good.... :o Any hints on this? Is there some version conflict going on? Thanks! Ron
