Re: [webmin-l] problem with ssh key

[<ax...@ax...>]

Hi

.ssh is the correct directory for ssh and ssh2. Check your sshd_config fi=

where you can over ride the default setting for stored keys.

# Authentication:
LoginGraceTime 600
PermitRootLogin no
StrictModes yes
DenyUsers  serious
RSAAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication yes
#AuthorizedKeysFile     %h/.ssh/authorized_keys
