Thanks to Jenny Butler, Paul Moore, Joe Senulis, and Alan Anderson for their
responses. Basiclly to get public key authentication to work I had to copy
my public key from my source node to my target node and add the entry into
the identification file of my source node and an entry in the target nodes
authenticaion file the entry was Key user-host.pub.
Thanks again,
Chris

Subject: Publickey authentication with ssh
Admins,
I am running tru64 5.1B and I am trying to setup publickey
authentication with secure shell. In my /etc/ssh2/ssh2_config file I have
AllowedAuthenication publickey,password and in /etc/ssh2/sshd_config file I
have AllowedAuthenication publickey,password. Below is my output from ssh
-v hostname. I get publickey disabled. Any Idea as to what could be
causing this?
TIA,
Chris Bryant
