What am I as the admin supposed to do with it? If you add the public key to your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file, that will authorize you to log in to that account using the corresponding private key. I'm not sure what the corresponding authorized_keys file would be when using MacSSH. I recommend using a program called "keychain" to manage your ssh keys while you're logged in. There should be a Debian package for it. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/ Dave -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
