How do you setup Tectia on Windows to connect to Solaris?

I have a client that is using Tectia on Windows to connect to our Solaris machine. I am using ssh to do this. How do I go into Tectia and configure it to connect to our Solaris machine using ssh? Is there a guide somewhere because the Help for Tectia is just not cutting it?

Just:
  1. fire up terminal,
  2. profiles -> add profile,
  3. hostname as profile name,
  4. specify username as yours,
  5. apply,
  6. ok,
  7. profile -> that profile,
  8. accept the host save the key, and
  9. log in with your id's password.

That's easy enough, but we are using key authentication without passphrases there is no need for a password but tectia is still asking for a password. I just wanted to check to see if that was all I needed to do or if I had to do something extra. If anyone else has something to add, then that would be great, otherwise, thanks for the response.

Yes, to be welcomed, you need to copy your keys/key files to the other end and add yourself to authorized. From Solaris to Solaris, I used to copy the entire ~/.ssh/ with scp -rp (permissions are critical) using my password once. Only localhost/127.0.0.1 was invalid, as it was a new host with new keys. Now, I am on hp-ux with ssh2 and a home dir not local, so the files are in /etc/ssh2/auth/<my_id>/ and they locked me out. As I recall, you need a key file or line and a line in authorized_users, but read up on the ssh man pages on Solaris. I will look around and see where the tectia saves my keys.

I see C:\documents and settings\me\ssh has an authorized_keys2 file (for incoming login) and an authorization file with the name of your private key that resides there, too. Your same_name.pub is, wait for it, your public key, which you need to place on the other end, and put the file name in the authorized* file there.
