Hmmm, he uses an NT4 and PuTTY to connect the Linux box and since I reported that using only publickey auth isn't working yet he didn't tried it recently. I will ask him tomorrow. BTW, it is also not possible to connect with PuTTY (with PuTTY keys which is also working well to the Linux box, see below). > 2.

Ah, do they need to match? Why? Anyway my entries are matching. And I can login at the unix box and they aren't matching there.
