Cygwin ssh keygen not doing

I am having an ssh nightmare, I have not idea what I am doing wrong. So i just started over, here are my steps. $ ssh-keygen -t rsa Generating public/private rsa key pair.

My first thought (although this isn't mentioned in your output) is to check the permisions on your key file, it should be readable to the owner only. May 3rd, 2012, 05:41 AM. okay, taking a closer look at your output and comparing to my succesful login I see this key difference. debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Trying private key: debug1: Trying private key. debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering RSA public key: debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password debug2: we did not send a packet, disable method debug1: Next authentication method: password. It seems you are offering a public key when you should be offering a private key, but id_rsa should be a private key so now I am as confused as you are. May 3rd, 2012, 05:45 AM. Could that be because I specified the key in my command? I know that -i works. My hope was to elimiante and misconfiguration in the ssh_config realm by listing the key in the command. May 3rd, 2012, 05:57 AM. Perhaps this is a case of the blind leading the blind! I tried specifying with -i as well and I got output more similar to yours. debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering DSA public key. ssh/id_dsa debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-dss blen 434. Now I am suspecting that the server is rejecting your key, if you log on with the password method you can check (grep it for sshd) for clues as to why it's rejecting the key, if that is the case. May 3rd, 2012, 06:14 AM. Could you post the result of this command on the server. sudo tail Regards. May 3rd, 2012, 12:27 PM. I have both password and RSA keys enabled. This doesn't seem helpful to me.

May 3rd, 2012, 04:24 PM. Try getting more output. You can adjust the number after -n to get more or less lines of output. grep sshd | tail -n 30. edit: if you really don't want your ip shown an easy way to accomplish that is. grep sshd | tail -n 30 | sed.
