ok, I don't understand this yet.
1. I created a dummy user on my system and logged in there.
2. I did 'ssh-keygen -t dsa'. The process prompted me for a filename
and a passphrase.
3. I did scp filename.pub
junk at clue.denver.co.us:/home/junk/.ssh/authorized_keys2
scp prompted me for the password I created on the clue server
copy completed ok.
4. I veriified that the file was present on /home/junk/.ssh/authorized_keys2
5. I tried sftp junk at clue.denver.co.us
I get a promt for password for user junk, and neither the actual
password on the clue
server nor the passphrase I embedded in the key are accepted.
What am I missing?
