hey mo,
check your field in /etc/passwd for proper alignment, on my box
it's taking the sixth field verbatim and tacking on /.ssh/indentity
~$ grep cabbey /etc/passwd
cabbey::500:513:,ntsid::/bin/sh
so just running ssh-keygen produces the files in /.ssh/
maybe you've got an extra : or something that's confusing it?
speaking of confusing, can anyone explain this neat trick of .ssh:
~ $ cd /
/ $ ls -lad .ssh
ls: .ssh: No such file or directory
/ $ cd .ssh
/.ssh $ ls
identity identity.pub known_hosts
/.ssh $ cd /cygdrive/d/cygwin/
/cygdrive/d/cygwin $ ls -lad .ssh
drwxr-xr-x 2 cabbey None 0 Dec 1 22:29 .ssh
/cygdrive/d/cygwin $ cd /
/ $ ls -lad .ssh
ls: .ssh: No such file or directory
/ $ mount | grep cygwin
D:\cygwin\bin /usr/bin system binmode
D:\cygwin\lib /usr/lib system binmode
D:\cygwin / system binmode
/ $
bizare, according to explorer D:\cygwin\.ssh\ is a normal directory,
with no attributed.
now the forces of openness
have a powerful and
unexpected new ally
