Problem with WRQ F-Secure SSH Client

F-Secure SSH Server and authentications over publickey

Hi We have big trouble to established an sftp connection over public key authentications. On the Windows 2003 Server is "3.2.0 F-Secure SSH Windows NT Server" installed. After a long time and many different configuration (don't ask WRQ about support!) it works with WS_FTP Client. But we have to use it on linux. Always the sftp client ask the password and not use the dsa key. debug1: service_accept: ssh-userauth debug1: got SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT debug1: authentications that can continue: publickey,password debug1: next auth method to try is publickey debug1: try pubkey: /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa debug1: authentications that can continue: publickey,password debug1: try pubkey: /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa debug1: authentications that can continue: publickey,password debug1: next auth method to try is password ...... Have somebody similar problems? Thanks for any answer!

I found the solution:

I have to convert the key from from OpenSSH to SSH2 with:

#> ssh-keygen -e -f ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub > ~/.ssh2/id_dsa.pub

Thanks

If it works with publickey authentication from another client, then
perhaps you simply don't have the right key on the Linux client.
