Hi,

Thanks for the info. Our client unix machine has OpenSSH running on it. Using the tool ssh-keygen, I did generate a public and private key, inserted the Public key in the remote machine $home/.ssh dir but still I am being asked for a password.

I have a doubt here and appreciate any clarification:

I have been provided with an user and password to login via SFTP to the remote machine. How do I tie this user and password to the Public/ Private Keys generated in the client machine ????
If I dont tie them together, how does the remote machine permit access to it !!?

Thnx,
Sands
