Old 02-01-2012
I created DSA keys using the user, brkdcm01 on 10.14.142.67 server.
I am running the script from the server 10.14.142.67 with user id, brkdcm01.

Could you please help me on this?

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

the SFTP servers are of two ways
1.General one and 2. Commercial

1.General:
then the command beow should have been used to create the key

ssh-keygen -t dsa
Place the Copy of the public key generated ( like id_dsa.pub) in ur home dir and a copy in the SFTP server (in .ssh2 directory )

2.Commercial:
ssh-keygen -t dsa
ssh-keygen -e -f id_dsa.pub > id_dsa_dev12.pub
Place the Copy of the public key generated ( like id_dsa.pub) in ur home dir and a copy in the SFTP server (in .ssh2 directory )

The .ssh2 should have 700 permission
and pub key files (.pub) with 600 permission
