Hi guys please help with the following.

I have run an ssh-keygen and made sure id_rsa.pub is the same in the client and server side /home/username/.ssh/ directory


Presume after it receives the encrypted confirmation something is not matching?

Figured it out finally thought id let you know.

I had to use the -t (type of key) option for rsa1 when generating the key as remote server linux version used only ssh version 1 which looks like it doesn't support my original rsa key as this is a type 2 (rsa2) due to different length/algorithm etc.

ssh-keygen -N passphrase -t rsa1

then copy /home/username/identity.pub key from client into server side /home/username/authorized_keys

and were in !
