I am attempting to use RSA keys to connect to a user, from a remote box. RSA keys are created on my main machine instead of the cygwin machine. Normally I copy them over and change permissions, authorized_keys, auth against the .pub and it works.
If I copy my authorized_keys file over and change permissions it fails to auth with the .pub. If i run: ssh-user-config As the user im trying to auth to it works 100%, with my key [not ssh-user-configs]. If i remove all id* files ssh-user-config created it works. If i rm -rf /home/user/.ssh/* And copy my key back over it fails to work. Any ideas why I have to run ssh-user-config? Any ideas on a way around this? Thanks.
