Speaking of putty, I recently started using it instead of OpenSSH under Cygwin. My only problem is that I haven't really figured out the putty authentication agent, or at least how to work with agent forwarding when using Putty. Here is what I did: 1. Ran the putty agent and imported my OpenSSH RSA key. 2. The putty agent prompted for my key password, which I entered and the agent accepted. 3. Right-click the agent, go to Saved Sessions, and choose a server that always worked with ssh and key-agent. 4. Putty opens and logs me right in: Sent username "root" Authenticated using RSA key "XXX" from agent 5. Here is where things go messy: serverXX# ssh www2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: I should NOT be getting a password prompt. I should just slide right in. What's up? Like I said, I am used to using ssh and ssh-agent rather than Putty, so I don't doubt I'm doing something wrong. --- Dustin Puryear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Puryear Information Technology, LLC <http://www.puryear-it.com> Providing expertise in the management, integration, and security of Windows and UNIX systems, networks, and applications.
