Marc,
I had Saturday the same problem in the course I am
giving. After a few minutes, it started to dawn : check
your access rights :
$HOME/.ssh should be rwx------ (700)
$HOME/.ssh/* should be rw------- (600)

Subject: SSH key authentification problem
Classification:
Hello,
I'm trying to setup a CVS over SSH connection between a windows 2k PC and
a
linux server. Since my CVS client is the one embedded in JBuilder9, we
need
to establish a passwordless authentification, thus using keys.
I've installed cygwin and followed the instructions found here :
http://minimal.cx/wincvsssh.php. I have generated a couple private/public
key, given my public key to the server administrator who added it where he
had to. My private key is in the /.ssh directory.
When, in a windows command line, type
ssh mylogin@theserver
I get a request for my password. Same problem when I use the -i id_dsa
I've got a CVS_RSH = c:\cywgin\bin\ssh system variable and C:\cygwin\bin
added to my PATH.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for helping,
