Number of key(s) added: 1 Now try logging into the machine, with: "ssh 'Glen Server@10.0.0.130'" and check to make sure that only the key(s) you wanted were added. Trying to login again still asked me for password. On Windows 11 public key should be copied to C:\ProgramData\ssh\administrators_authorized_keys

Re: [gentoo-user] ssh from linux to Windows
looking for known_hosts2 (and also /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts and /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts2) also happens on my machines, both a debian install and my gentoo machine, the files not being present does not prevent the ssh connection from working though. So this is probably not the issue. Judging from comments [1] it appears to be an undocumented legacy feature.

[gentoo-user] ssh from linux to Windows
